Spray Paint a Rug? Sure.
Painted Rug
For sure, what type of rug is it (what material is the fibers)? Knowing that will help you pick the appropriate paint for it.
if it has a short nap it's a piece of cake, make sure it is clean and free of any debris of any kind. i have done this with various plain rugs and turned em into holiday rugs with stencils. for a bolder look you may have to paint more than one coat . use good stiff stencil brushes. happy painting.
If you can paint cloth furniture you can paint a rug. Another way of doing this is dyeing it.
