When was the last time you rotated your rug?

According to the World Floor Covering Association, you should rotate an area rug 180 degrees every now and then to distribute traffic patterns across the surface and to even out fading that might be caused by exposure to the light. The WFCA recommends doing it every few months or at least once a year, depending on the traffic and lighting conditions in the room.
