Can't find the perfect rug? Make one with paint, glue and fringe to match any room!
I needed specific colors to match my bathroom and I could not find one to save my life. I finally just made my own from a very heavy duty fabric.
Watch how easy it is to do here!
You will need a few things to get the Indian wood blocked look that I got. I used a very heavy poly cotton fabric for the base. Americana Multi-Surface Satin Paints have served me well in the past so I chose to use them. The


E-6000 Fabri-Fuse allowed me to NOT have to struggle with the heavy duty fabric and a sewing machine and made things go smoothly and quickly.
Super happy with it and now I'm working on one for the kitchen in a different pattern and color scheme.
Suggested materials:
  • Americana Multi Surface Satin paint   (Amazon)
  • E-6000 Fabri-Fuse   (Amazon)
  • Cotton Fringe   (JoAnn Fabrics)
