Sisal Carpets: Durable and Stylish Carpets for your Home


Adding Sisal carpets on your home flooring can better the relaxation level people can feel while inside your house. Many people choose to install such carpets in their home as it offers the resilience and durability that no other carpets can give. These rugs come in various designs that are all charming and distinctive without compromising the durability and standard. This is why such carpets make a perfect addition to your house such as in your living room or bedroom while at the same time rising the relaxation level of your home.



Origins of Sisal fiber
Sisal fiber can exactly be extracted from a cactus plant with name of Agave Sisalana. This cactus type can mostly be found in deserted areas of Brazil and Africa. Because it is a cactus, it is accustomed to growing in arid and dry atmosphere which are otherwise not good for fibrous plants. This kind of cactus has long been farmed and cultivated by many people dating 100s of years back which they use to make twine and ropes. They slice the stalks and extract the fiber then it is leave out to dry. And the most famous product they make out of the produced sisal fibers is what most houses use as Sisal carpets.


Advantages of using Sisal
There are many advantages one can get using sisal in carpets than any other synthetic and natural fiber ones. For one, Sisal is naturally challenging to stain which means you do not have to hesitate about chemically treating it when your kid accidentally spills something on your carpet because it would not stain. You can just let your child play on your rug and not hesitate that he might stain it after some time. Two, Sisal is not famous to build up static electricity. It can be annoying when rugs and carpets rapidly produce static electricity especially on windy and dry days. It makes the carpet itchy to use. Sisal is famous to be resistant to static electricity as well as making lying or sitting on your carpet relax still. Third, Sisal is extremely durable and does not truly show any signs of wear and tear. You can bet it will look amazing even for a long time. And fourth, it comes in a big range of designs that will definitely match any home.
Sisal is actually one fiber that can make your house relax that is also very durable. You can bet that even if your child is already old, the rug will still look a few years younger than him. So when picking a carpet for your house, consider sisal carpets for its resilience and durability.

A&W Root Beer Float: The Perfect Family Fun Night Treat

The product, information, and gift card have been provided by A&W so that I could try the product and share my thoughts and information about A&W Root Beer. The opinions expressed in this post are my own and do not reflect the opinions of A&W

A&W Root Beer has a long history of helping my family create some beautiful memories. When I was a child, we got to make root beer floats on our family fun nights.  Now, I might give away my age when I tell you our movie nights were in the age of no cable TV.   But, on Sunday night, "The Wonderful World of Disney" was on TV and we were allowed our special treat of the week, an A&W Root Beer float.

We would watch in awe of the great movies and Disney specials while we sipped our floats.The unique, creamy taste of A&W Root Beer is a simple treat that creates fun, care-free experiences for families and can help make any moment special. I loved being able to make my own float.  My Mom would make sure we had all the ingredients to make these nights special.  Vanilla ice cream, whipped cream and cherries, along with the creamy taste of A&W root beer were set on our kitchen counter.  


Making an A&W Root beer Float is as simple as it comes!   Pour A&W Root Beer in your favorite glass or mug until it is about 3/4 full and then a scoop of ice cream. Top with whipped cream and of course, the cherry on top. Insert a straw and sip away!  Now, you can top with as many ingredients as you like:  colored sprinkles, nuts, cookie crumbs, and flavored syrups.  The possibilities are endless.  Personally, I just enjoy the traditional A&W Root Beer float!

As a child, there were not many times we were allowed to make anything in the kitchen.  But,we looked forward to those weekly A&W root beer floats.  Not only was it our only indulgence, we looked forward to it all week. I have two sisters and Mom and Dad would pick who got to go first each week.  After making our floats, we would gather round and watch TV and sip on our floats.  Those are some great memories when times were simple.

I have carried this tradition on with my kids and now my grandchildren.  I let the kids pick out what movie we are going to watch and we make our A&W root beer floats, just like I did many years ago.  I hope my children and grandchildren will continue this tradition for many years to come.
