Techniques to Flatten a Rug
1. If the edges curl upward, lay the rug on a flat, hard surface and fold the edges slightly under for a few days.
2. If the edges are curling under, flip the area rug over and let gravity do its job.
3. Use heavy objects to weigh down the edges of the rug for a few hours.
4. Hold a blow dryer 6 to 9 inches away, set on low, and sweep over the unflat areas until the fibers lay flat.
