Shag is great for small rugs and runners, but it's also an excellent style element for larger rugs. An 8x10 shag rug is a great way to complete almost any space while adding a sense of fun and luxury.

Why Do We Love Shag Rugs?

While the hippies may have made shag rugs popular in the 70s, the interior design industry has seen their popularity evolve from counter-culture-only to mainstream hip.

  • Shaggy shag rugs have thin, stringy fibers, for a funky, eclectic look.
  • Another natural fiber shag is the leather shag rug, which makes a serious statement.

Acrylic and Synthetic Fiber Shag Rugs

Caring For Your 8x10 Shag Rug

  • Vacuum the back"?If your shag rug has a woven backing, you can flip it over and vacuum the back to freshen it up and get rid of dust and fine debris that may have sunk deep beneath the pile.
  • Stay on top of stains"?keep a carpet spot cleaner handy, and tend to stains ASAP. Make sure to check that the product is safe for your rug, and follow the directions on the bottle.
  • Read the directions"?Some shag rugs are vacuum-safe, and some can be cleaned by rented carpet cleaners. It all depends on the size, thickness of the pile, and the rug's materials.
