So This Is Christmas

Merry Christmas is such an infectious feeling I like to feel that way all year around.

So if you are visiting just before Christmas, just after Christmas or even here on Christmas day I am sure you will find something of interest for you and in the spirit of Christmas.

It may be said that Christmas is no longer a celebration but this must be spoken by people that have never had trouble closing their eyes on Christmas Eve in an expectation of what maybe left for them on the carpet under the tree.

I continue to look forward to the surprise on my Grandchild's faces to this day at Christmas events.

Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas - Merry Christmas

The Advantages Of Wool Rugs

By Hugh Stock

Wool is one of the oldest materials being used to create rugs today. The fiber in wool is strong and everlasting. It can endure years of wear and tear. There are several advantages of owning a wool rug.

What are the good things about wool rugs? Let us study some of the advantages of this type of rug.

The best part about a wool rug is that it is made of natural fibres, so it is definitely an environmentally friendly option.

Wool is water repellent. You don't have to worry about any liquids penetrating to the fibers inside the rug. In fact water will not leave the surface of wool so you will be able to clean it up before it becomes a problem.

Because wool is water repellent you don't have to worry about liquids ruining your rugs. Weather it is wet shoes coming in from the outdoor weather or someone spills a drink on the rug there is a fast and easy way to clean up the wool rug.

Wool rugs also offer an aesthetic advantage. Since wool is not difficult to colour, all kinds of shades can be used for wool rugs. This material absorbs colour effectively, and the brightness does not fade easily.

Wool is a material that adapts itself to different uses. Since you can get all kinds of wool, from thick, heavy yarn, to light, delicate strands, you can get rugs in all kinds of textures, when wool is the material used.

Wool's other qualities also make wool rugs an excellent choice. It is elastic and springy, so it wears very well. Even when you step on it, the indentation made will disappear, and the rug will come back to its original shape.

This is an extremely durable material, so rugs made from wool last a really long time. Since wool is so durable, wool rugs are a good option for high traffic areas.

Not only does wool make the ideal material for years of use, it retains its appearance, too, so wool rugs still look attractive when they have been used for a long time. Wool resists dirt well, and wool rugs do not need to be cleaned as often as synthetic ones. In addition, static does not build up on wool, so rugs made of this material can be used safely around delicate equipment that could get harmed by static. Wool rugs are also very good for sound insulation.
