Get the creases out of a stored carpet?

I would think a steam iron on it's highest setting held above the crease and something that could move the pile around without burning you, would work.

Or maybe you could put a damp cloth on the wrong side and lightly steam it that way.

Hang on something in the bath and run the hottest water , STEAM IT out

It is WAY to big to do that! It had been down in the living room, but got "rolled" up while we were dog sitting.

Steamer and brushing the nap. Could take a while. Furniture repair guy had to do it with a set in crease on our new couch which has a napped surface - took about 30 - 45 min with a steamer and brushing it while damp from steam

- but it worked.

DS had a suggestion - go buy two mini-sticks nets and his team will take care of the rest!

I know you leave an ice cube on an indentation in a carpet and that usually takes care of it. But it sounds like you'd need an iceberg and that's not practical. DS's suggestion sounds like fun!

Not a good suggestion. Doesn't need beating!

Game last night - the Sharks look good. CAPS started well - but they're definitely tired, and ended up losing a heartbreak in the shoot-out (I hate this). The back-up goalie, Brent Johnson, is playing and doing well - looks as good as most of the #1 guys. Poor guy - made some great saves all night

- and 1 of the goals - honestly the ref should have whistled it while covered but let some guys continue the whacking . Anyhow - the last shooter of the shoot-out - comes in - Brent gets a piece of it - a hard bouncing shot - and it hits the stick blade - just in front of the net by the right post - bounces up and just barely hits the inner side of the post - net and in. Goal. And Brent then gets up and actually broke his stick right in half just outside the crease - not happy.
