Sometimes, with the judicious use of skills and available materials, one can totally change the look of the house or living space one is in. Depending on the materials used and the effect needed, this can become either a cheap or an expensive affair. A good set of faux fur area rugs may be of benefit to you.

This article will include some advantages and disadvantages that you may encounter should you decide on getting this item.

Look out for ones that are made of fine acrylic fibers, meaning get rugs made out of this material. This will ensure that it will not release a lot of fiber when it is stroked or handled. Read also the material label to know what it is made of but be aware that sometimes faux rugs will contain a bit of either dog or cat fur.

When it comes to false rug manufactures and creations, there is a plethora of designs and patterns to choose from. Most popular animal designs come in the form of zebra, fox, leopard, chinchilla, mink and bear. Whatever the design, ensure that it fully complements or contrasts the room you are using it properly and not to detract to the overall effect you are trying to achieve. Always remember that area rugs are kept on the floor and not hung on walls as some are opt to do.

In buying or choosing these rugs, there is that added advantage to your conscience, in that you know that no living animal has been killed to get it. They are also a lot easier to maintain than the real ones, and do not stink up easily as they are easily washable. In general they will be more durable and resist wear and tear easily, as well as being mothproof and hypoallergenic to boot. This is because they are free from residual dander.

Coming in many sizes and shapes, you will be spoilt for choice when choosing a specific size and design, and if it does not exist, can have one custom made to your specifications. This flexibility is what makes it a good choice for would be and seasoned interior decorators.

The price factor is of course the deal breaker here, as these are much cheaper than the authentic ones. It is also quite easy to order one online and can be shipped to you anytime. On top of this, you will not need any special clearances or wildlife permits to import one as is needed with the real furs and real animal skins.

Remember that it is for decorative purposes only and will not provide warmth if used. It will also freeze and crack in extreme cold and the cheaper low quality rugs will tend to feel like cotton rather than fur in the long run. Sadly it may not be as eco friendly a you may think as it is not biodegradable.
