Area rugs on carpets keep moving
 
Area rugs on carpets keep moving
************************************************** ****

When I lay area rugs over carpets with kids around the area rugs move
around and turn up at the corners and gets ruined.

How can I keep these area rugs from moving ?

We used the rubber/latex available at Home Depot. Using this, the area
rugs hold on tile but not on carpet.

Can anyone suggest anything ?

Thanks,
Kim

There is a special type of mat material for rug on carpet. It feels very
slightly sticky but does no harm. It works the best, but even it is not
perfect and the rugs will creep over time. It's called Magic Stop Pad.

Could try one of those things for "sewing" on buttons that use plastic
fasteners - like what price
tags are fastened onto clothing with. It might not be real secure, but
should give in case someone
trips on the edge of the rug. Or a curved upholstery needle to stitch
them down with?
