Using your Venice shag rug is easy! Just place it in the area of your room where you want to add a touch of luxury. You can put it in your living room, bedroom, or even your study. For daily use, it's best to keep it away from sharp objects that could snag the yarns. To clean it, you can vacuum regularly with a brush attachment on a low - suction setting to keep the pile looking fresh. If there are any spills, blot them immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners as they can damage the polyester pile. Also, every few months, you can rotate the rug to ensure even wear. Remember, the sizes might vary a bit, so don't be alarmed if it's not an exact measurement.
