Have you ever moved your furniture around and then had to live with ugly carpet dents? It's an easy problem to fix!

Grab a screwdriver and a steam iron! Use the screwdriver to loosen the matted carpet. You can also use a spoon or even a butter knife. Hold your steam iron a quarter of an inch above the dent...let the steam saturate the area. This will plump up the crushed areas and make the dent even with the rest of the carpet.

If you don't have the time to sit there with your steam iron, put an ice cube or two on the crushed area and walk away. As the ice melts the moisture will plump up the carpet fibers. Once the ice has completely melted, use a towel to brush the carpet fibers back to their original fullness.
