    search “stick on for corner of rug” in amazon. I had some rugs that did this and they worked like a charm. Years ago so I don’t have the brand. Just read reviews so you dont damage your floor.

    Allegedly, ice cubes 🧊? Put a few on the corner and let them melt. It’s supposed to make it lay flat. I haven’t done this myself though. Saw it somewhere on the interwebs.

    Put an ice cube or two on it. There’s a few videos you can watch on this method

    Ice cubes and something heavy!

    Put something heavy on the corner and put 2-3 ice cubes on the curled part and when the cubes melt it relaxes the fabric and they won’t curl up again!

    You can do the same thing if you have dents in the carpet from furniture or stuff. Drop some ice cubes on it and when it melts brush or it fluff it up with your fingers and *chefs kiss*

    (Or you can lay the carpet upside down for a few hours with something heavy on the corner when you flip it back over it’s good).

    I tried the ice cube thing and it never worked. I left heavy things on both corners for multiple days and the ice cube thing multiple times and it never worked. I then tried ironing it on the very high heat setting with a towel in between and that did help, but it didn’t stick. The only thing that worked was corner carpet sticky things that I ordered off of Amazon.

    Double sided Velcro. Costs about 2 dollars. Cut to fit the corner.

    I love your area rug . . . can you share the link?

    I actually hot glued mine (just a few drops) and it worked great. It didn’t damage the carpet or the floor. You can google how to do it. But it’s very easy.

    I put a heavy kettlebell on my corner and it laid perfectly flat after a few days.

    Spin the rug so that a less heavily trafficked corner replaces this one. Hopefully it works out so that the curled edge is under the couch.

    We tried all the things suggested here and nothing worked. Just last week we bought some alien tape and taped an old vinyl tile under the corner. Hasn’t moved since. My carpet is on top carpet tho. So you would just have to get those sticky corners and stick it right to the floor.

    Spritz with water, both sides till slightly damp, weigh the edges down with books, let sit over night.
