![]() ![]() I have to admit I was a little worried that spaghetti stain wouldn’t come out very easily, since it wouldn’t budge with water like the other two did. Here’s a little video I did showing how I cleaned each one. So I started with a few things that are known to wreak havoc on light colored rugs and are likely to get spilled under a dining room table: Spaghetti sauce, chocolate sauce, and mushed up strawberries (raspberries had the same result). I wanted to show you all how easy these rugs are to clean and despite their light color, every food stain you can imagine comes out! It looks like it was ‘meant to be’ doesn’t it? The colors and pattern are so up my alley. This is the Rugby Stripe Light Blue Indoor/Outdoor Runner Rug. I would highly recommend carpet tape when using flat-weave rugs over a hard surface… the shifting will drive you nuts if you don’t! I also used some carpet tape to secure the corners and middle so that it doesn’t shift when we walk over it. I folded over the cut edge and used some upholstery thread to sew that side down so it wouldn’t unravel. We have had them for almost 2 months now and I’m still impressed!īecause my kitchen is on the smaller side, I cut the runner (which is normally 8 feet long) down to fit perfectly in my space. Any spot or stain that occurred from dirt or food simply wiped clean with a damp rag! I had never beheld such sorcery from a rug. But after a week with them in place I was sold. As I alluded to, I was skeptical at first because of how light colored they were and I was worried about their stain-ability. I was beyond impressed with these indoor/outdoor rugs from Dash and Albert by Annie Selke. I had been contemplating for a while adding a runner in the kitchen, but I hadn’t even considered a rug for our dining room because I knew what a hassle it could be to clean! But I figured this could be a sort of “test run” to see how I would like a rug in there. The blue and white rugs make great summer and spring rugs, while the buffalo check and black and natural colored rugs say fall and winter.This post is sponsored by Annie Selke Company.įor the photoshoot back in February, the stylist ordered a couple rugs for my kitchen and dining room. ![]() Go check them out & pin your favorites for later!
