As a rule, the fringe is white or cream in color, and over the years of use, the brightness of the fringe naturally dulls, and they gradually take on a gray or yellow color which detracts from the beauty of the rug and, therefore, they need to be cleaned.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Fringe can be tricky to clean at home, but with the proper cleaning techniques, you can do it easily and effectively by following these steps:&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>1. Using a vacuum cleaner, remove any dirt or debris that may be lodged in the fringe before cleaning it. This will make the cleaning process easier and more effective.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. Mix a small amount of mild detergents, such as a gentle laundry detergent, with water in a spray bottle. Spray the solution onto the fringe and gently work it into the fibers using a soft brush. Be sure not to saturate the fringe, as too much water can damage the fibers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-8 wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-container-7 wp-block-column\">\n<div class=\"wp-container-6 wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-container-4 wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>3. Using a clean, dry towel, blot the fringe and remove excess water using a gentle patting motion so as not to damage the fibers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-5 wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" src=\"https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-29-1-1024x768-1.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4352\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-29-1-1024x768-1.webp 1024w, https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-29-1-1024x768-1-300x225.webp 300w, https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-29-1-1024x768-1-768x576.webp 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>4. After cleaning the fringe, let it air dry completely.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-11 wp-block-columns\">\n<div class=\"wp-container-9 wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p>5. Once the fringe is dry, use a soft brush to groom the fibers and bring them back to their natural shape.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-container-10 wp-block-column\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img width=\"874\" height=\"583\" src=\"https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-30-1-1.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-4353\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-30-1-1.webp 874w, https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-30-1-1-300x200.webp 300w, https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-30-1-1-768x512.webp 768w, https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/angela-says\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/MicrosoftTeams-image-30-1-1-600x400.webp 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 874px) 100vw, 874px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>It&#8217;s important to note that these steps are for cleaning the fringe of natural fiber rugs. If you have a silk rug, you should consult with a<a href=\"https:\/\/kiwiservices.com\/rug-cleaning\/\"> professional rug cleaner like Kiwi services<\/a>. You should also read the rug&#8217;s care label or consult the manufacturer to ensure that you use the right cleaning methods.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all want to keep our area rugs in their beautiful new appearance, but the most challenging part is keeping the rug fringe clean.
