Tufting is a textile making technique that involves inserting fibers into a fabric to create patterns, textures or designs. At Rugs in Peace, each rug is tufted and finished by hand.

We mainly use synthetic wool and acrylic/wool mixes. They are easy to work with, easy to treat and maintain.

Well, good thing you asked. At Rugs in Peace we don't beat around the bush. This is how we fix it.

Step 1: Your Assignment/Wish

It all starts with you. You might have a brilliant idea for a rug, you want to give the employee of the month a unique gift, your niece is going to be born soon and you don't want to be that dick with the six hundredth diaper cake, or you're just looking for something to decorate your room. to cheer up. Whatever it is, we are here to listen and turn it into a product that you can look at with beaming eyes.

Step 2: The design

If you have a specific design in mind, we will sit at the drawing board with you. If you're thinking "hey, a little less frills here", we'll arrange that. We'll keep laughing, I promise. And if you just have a picture from Herr Google and everything has to be straight forward: nice and easy! We keep it realistic and see if we can adjust the design the way you want and the way we can. Tufting is a quite crude technique, so the less detailed, the better the outcome.

Step 3: Tufting begins

Once the design is approved, we begin tracing the design onto our canvas. We often make areas with color codes, so that we can always tuft per color and keep the process efficient.

Step 4: Latex Finish

After the tufting is completed, we apply a layer of latex. This ensures durability and keeps the fibers firmly in place. After drying for 24 hours, the rug is ready for the next step.

Step 5: Shave and cut

We carefully shear and cut the rug to perfect the texture and pattern and make your design pop more. This is where your rug comes to life.

Step 6: Finishing tape and backing fabric

We add the finishing touch by applying the backing fabric and finishing tape. This gives the rug a neat, finished look and ensures that your masterpiece is more resistant to wear and tear.

And voilà! After these careful steps, your dress is ready for shipping. It is now a unique work of art that fits perfectly with your wishes and interior, company, gift or customer.

At Rugs in Peace we work hard to get your rug to you as quickly as possible, but exact production time may vary. This depends on a few factors that we will take a closer look at:

Factor 1: The Design

First of all, if there is a design process involved, it can affect the time. If you already have a design or if we figure one out together, this can speed things up. Sometimes customers want a small adjustment, and that's completely okay. We want it to be perfect for you.

Factor 2: The Dimensions

Size matters! We can currently make rugs up to a maximum of 80x80cm. Larger rugs generally take more time, because they simply require more work.

Factor 3: Complexity and Colors

The more complicated the design and the more colors it contains, the more time we have to spend to make sure everything looks perfect.

In general, if everything goes smoothly, you can count on:

Normal Production Time : 2-3 weeks to make your rug, plus another week for shipping to your door.

Express Order : If you're really in a hurry, we can produce your rug in just 1 week, followed by 2-3 days for shipping.

We do our best to give you an accurate estimate with your order, so you know exactly when to expect your unique rug. At Rugs in Peace we go for quality, and sometimes that just takes some time.

Currently a rug can be a maximum of 80x80 cm, but we strive to produce rugs in larger sizes.

We understand that you are curious about the price of our rugs. Good question! The costs of our rugs are a mix of different things that ensure that you get a top rug that will last a long time.

The Canvas : Let's start with the canvas we will be tufting on. We're quite picky, and that's a good thing. The type of cloth we use affects the price and quality of your rug.

Materials : Okay, what do we put in that rug? We are talking about the wool or other fibers, glue, latex, hundreds of skewers and finishing touches, such as backing fabric to protect the latex, bias tape and labels.

Tools : You can't make a rug without the right tools. Think of tuft guns, razors, glue guns and scissors. And of course our damage insurance if we cut off an earlobe! Oh no wait, those are hairdressers… never mind!

Labor Hours : Hand-tufted rugs require significant labor hours as we create each rug by hand. In the case of custom designs or our own designs, design time can also be a factor that affects costs. Creating a unique design to your specifications requires extra effort and time, which can impact the overall price.

Our pricing is based on these factors and ensures that you receive a high-quality, handmade rug that meets your expectations. We strive to deliver quality that justifies the value of your investment. For specific pricing and options, we invite you to contact us so we can help you choose the perfect rug for your needs and budget.

Absolutely not! Here at Rugs in Peace, our rugs aren't just for the floor. We also have a trick up our sleeve to transform your rug into a stunning wall decoration. It's a bit of a different process, but the end result is just as enchanting.

Our rugs are not only intended to brighten up your floors, but also to transform your walls into true works of art. If you choose to order your rug as a wall decoration, a special process is used to ensure that the rug can be firmly and securely attached to your wall.

They can also be placed on tables, desks or other surfaces that are not affected by shoe soles :).
