    Hello, Diedre! First off, I so enjoy your content and find a ton of inspiration! Thank you!! Secondly, this comment is totally unrelated to the current video, but I am very interested in how you make a space for your crafting without cluttering up your home. I have an outside shed, but can't really make it my year round craft space because of cold winters in Indiana. I am interested in how you manage your crafting space. Thank you! ❤️

    All our area rugs are woven polypropylene. They are great when you have pets. If you have a steam mop, I have a Bissell, you can use it on the low setting to get the folds out. I remove the pad and go over the whole area rug as if I was vacuuming it. I don't mind getting down on my knees, it's getting up that's hard now that I'm older.

    So glad I found your video. We have just bought our dream home to retire toin a couple years and we are going to use it as a vacation home u til we retire. We have just bought a bunch of rugs for the various rooms and we have been working to get the bumps out. The runners we have in the bedroom are awful at the corners and I have been racking my brain trying to figure out how to get those edges to stay down so I do not breathy neck! I had not considered double sided tape!
    As you will have had this down for a little while now and in a room that is one of the busiest in the house, can I ask how it is working for you? Also will it be harming the wooden floors underneath, leaving a nasty adhesive residue? Are you able to easily move the rug so you can wash the floors or is the rug stuck until it is time for a new one?
    Thanks for any insight ou can share.

    FYI, I use that carpet tape often on photo shoots and I always put blue paper tape down between the carpet tape and the floor because I've seen it rip up the finish off the floor. So if you think you might move your rug in time consider that.

    I have a area rug that sets on my carpet and it’s kinks up or wrinkles only on one end. Will the steam process help that? Also can I use the tape to hold down onto the carpet? My carpet is absolutely beautiful and I just want to get rid of the wrinkles at the one end.
