Article: Lift the corners of your rug to reveal the rug's label. Usually, on the label, it will have instructions on the safest way to clean your Oriental rug. Rugs can be made of silk, wool, cotton, or synthetic material and each requires a certain degree of finesse when cleaning. Cotton and wool rugs are generally more durable and easier to clean. If you have a silk rug, consider taking it to a professional instead of cleaning it yourself in the case of severe stains. Vacuuming your rug at least once a week will lift recent debris and dirt from it and keep it smelling and looking new for a longer time. Vacuuming also prevents the wool fibers in your rug from becoming packed down. Do not frequently vacuum antique or silk oriental rugs as it can damage them and reduce their value. Oriental rugs can be prone to sun damage, so keep it away from windows if you can. Keeping an oriental rug in the sun will cause the colors to fade over time. If your rug has to be in direct sunlight, rotate it at least once a month. While the colors are still likely to fade, at least they will fade evenly. Some carpets are colorfast and won't bleed when wet, while others will. If the rug's label reads "dry clean only," then there's a good possibility your rug is not colorfast. If you want to test your rug, saturate a small corner of the carpet with room temperature water, then press on it with a clean white cloth. If there is dye on your rag, then your carpet is likely to bleed if you clean it yourself.  In the case that your carpet is not colorfast do a light cleaning but avoid getting your carpet wet or using chemical cleaners on it. If you need to deep clean a carpet that is not colorfast, your best option would be to bring it in to be professionally cleaned. Heavy pieces of furniture that sit on top of your oriental rug can work down the fibers and damage your carpet over time. To prevent this, rearrange your furniture every six months. This will even out the wear and tear on your rug and increase its longevity.

Article: Visit your local fabric store to obtain yellow, gold, and brown colored fleece fabric.  Get ½ yard of each color of fleece. Buy a 1-yard piece of 1" elastic. Measure around the person’s head from top to bottom. You want to measure under the chin, around the face, and over the crown of the person’s head. Make the elastic shorter than the distance around the head so it will fit snugly when stretched around the head. Cut a strip of fabric 2 ¼ inches wide. Place the elastic inside the fleece and sew the long edge of the fleece fabric together with the elastic inside. Cut another 2 1/2 inch strip of fleece to use for the lion’s tail. Create fringe to make the lion’s mane with strips of fabric. Cut the strips to be 3-6 inches long and ¾ inch wide. Use fabric glue or a simple hand stitch to attach the fringe strips to the yellow band with the elastic. Alternate colors and stack multiple strips to create a colorful look. Finish the headband by connecting the two ends of the elastic together to form a circle. Make sure to firmly connect the ends of the elastic together so the stretching does not rip the seam. Place the lion’s mane around your face by stretching the elastic under your chin and over the top of your head.
