CRI Launches Social Media Campaign with Blog Partners

Dalton, GA, September 9, 2016—The Carpet and Rug Institute (CRI) launched a social media campaign to generate digital conversations about the many attributes of carpet. Five bloggers who focus on design and family living will develop posts that highlight the benefits of carpet and use the hashtag #beautyofcarpet.

Blog readers and the general public are invited to share posts on the beauty of carpet and also enter to win a $500 Visa gift card at www.beautyofcarpet.com. The contest will run from September 6 to 29.

To stay engaged, follow CRI’s social media channels (Twitter: @CarpetRugInstit; Facebook: @CarpetandRugInstitute; Instagram: @beauty.of.carpet; Pinterest: The Carpet and Rug Institute) to like, share or comment on posts and join the #beautyofcarpet conversation.
