Help with runner

‎04-14-2014 09:44 PM

I received a Valerie Runner to other day and it was shipped rolled up. I love the rug and shipping it rolled up is the way to do it. NOW.......how do I get it flat ?? How do I correct the roll at the end of the rug. I have had it flat in a spare room with weights on the ends but when I check it ...it just rolls and rolls. I am sure there is a remedy. HELP and Thank you in advance.

Try rolling it in the other direction and leave it for awhile. That should flatten it out. I recently bought a runner and it worked for me.

I can ship you my 10 pound ""teenage"" kitten and he will flatten it out.

It is the Valerie Geranium runner. Thanks for the suggestions. I will try and roll it oppositely. That just may work. I am sure it just take time.....AND.....to lolakimono.....Everybody loves a comedian !! LOL

If rolling it backwards doesn't work, try giving the whole thing a light misting with water, then lay it upside down.

That was going to be my suggestion, too.....get it a little wet and that might work.

Bet it is a beautiful rug! Enjoy!
