White carpet

White carpets, undoubtedly, serve as an adornment for any interior, but many housewives are afraid to buy the carpets of this color due to stereotypes about the complexity of caring for them. However, the truth of this statement can be argued.

The white carpet does not have a very good reputation, but it is not at all deserved. Stereotypes about the special "capriciousness" of such products took shape quite a long time ago, even at that period when it was necessary to carefully care for the carpets of this color because of the inconceivable high cost. Palaces of raw natural fiber cost a lot of money, while they quickly got dirty and lost their original appearance. Such products often had to be replaced.

However, now many manufacturers not only carefully process the skins and fabrics, but also offer a wide range of artificial fibers that are difficult to distinguish from the original, but which are easier to care for.

Carpet in the interior plays quite an important role. He can either transform the look of a room or spoil it. In this regard, white palaces have a number of serious advantages:

1. Since it has historically developed that the white carpet is a symbol of comfort, then so be it. Psychologically, people perceive a room with a white floor as more ornate, and if the carpet is also immaculately clean, the room is transformed into royal mansions.
2. Rare use is one of the added benefits. The chance of seeing the exact same thing at a party as the one that decorates your floors is almost zero.
3. White carpet - like a clean sheet. He creates an excellent background for the "modeling" of any interior and the placement of various accents, and maybe he himself speak a great addition - if the room as a whole is made in dark colors.
4. Palace of white color will help to visually expand the space, filling it with lightness, lightness, freshness.

Unfortunately, white carpets still get dirty pretty easily. On a white background, you can immediately see the slightest speck, and from this the whole look can be spoiled very quickly.

Cleaning white carpets is a rather painstaking task, which, of course, will be able to cope alone, but good preparation will be required: the purchase of special tools, cleaning tools and other things. You can not use folk remedies: if the fiber turns yellow, return the previous color will not work.

White carpets are made from various materials of natural or artificial origin. You can choose a fluffy version of the muton, terry-like "grass", smooth knitted carpet.
