I have a very nice rug that doesn’t go with my decor in my new place, how would I dye it a different color?

    I would not suggest trying to dye a rug that has many different colors or design in it. Maybe take it to a resale shop and see if you could trade it?

    Hello Marne,

    Please don't even try! SELL IT!! Buy something else!! (Maybe used) This exercise would be fraught with danger and be a complete waste of time and money!!!

    Oriental rugs can be worth quite a bit of money. Take a picture of it, see if there's any tag on the back that tells you the fiber content and see what a rug dealer can tell you. If it's worth something they may buy if from you.
