The family and I headed up to Long Grove today to attend the Chocolate Fest which I have to tell you was soooo cool! This is one of those events we will have to attend every year! One of the companies we met with was Mohawk. I own a Mohawk rug in my living room which we absolutely love. What I didn't know was the advancements they made in their carpeting!
SmartStrand has permanent stain and soil resistance that will never wear off. For as long as you have their carpet, it will have stain protection because it is built into the carpet fiber itself! Now, if you have two kids, you are going to have spills. (Or if you are at a festival, your kids get to enjoy making a mess!!!)
Here's the really cool thing – SmartStrand is easy to clean. You don’t have to use any harsh chemicals or carpet cleaners to remove stains from SmartStrand carpet. All you need is a dishrag, warm water, and mild detergentlike dish soap. Even tough stains, like ketchup, red Kool-Aid, even red wine will clean easily out of SmartStrand carpet. Seriously people, it was easy enough for my 5 year old to remove the stains!
My husband was so impressed that we'll be checking out this when we replace the carpet in our house. Who doesn't want something this easy to clean in their home? If you can't wait, make sure you enter to win your own 6’ X 9’ SmartStrand Silk bound carpet rug.
A few of us blogger took the challenge on also:
Needless to say, we all were pretty impressed! If you have the “License to Spill” tour heading to your area make sure that you check them out. Audra Lowe (co-host of The Better Show) was here in Chicago with Sweet Whimsy Bakery. Check out what the kids got to try!
Here are a few more of the fun things we were able to do at the Chocolate Fest:
I highly recommend checking out the Chocolate Fest and the License To Spill Tour!
What a neat event. My kids would have thought it was fun.
Looks like a fun event!
I wish there was a chocolate fest in my area!

That looks like such a fun event! I am so fascinated by that carpet & plan on using it whenever we replace our carpet.

We stopped by their booth in Atlanta last week and I was blown away by how stain resistant this carpet really is!
Sounds like fun! THOSE FRIES killing me here lol

What a fun experience! I love that the kids got involved and those cheese fries look amazing!
What fun. I mean, I never met a kid that didn’t like to make a mess! Add in bounce houses and you must be the coolest Mom ever!

My carpets take a beating. I’ll keep this in mine.

Who can’t use a chocolate fest? ROFL
Now THAT was fun to be able to enjoy all the treats and spill on someone else’s carpet without guilt!
Looks like a great event!
I absolutely need an indestructible rug. In fact, I need all of those sweets and those cheese fries too.
I need that carpet for my son’s playroom. 🙂
I love an easy to clean carpet.

That looks like such a fun event! I like the ‘never’ wear off feature. Oh, and the chocolate fountain was a genius addition!
