How do you get wrinkles out of a new area rug?

Answer:
Many times it's best to lay it out flat with objects holding down the edges once you gently stretched it out. A couple of days, and with use it will lay flat.

If that doesn't work, sometimes dampening the rug and then laying it out will cause the wrinkles to come out.
