With our recent move, I have some misplaced furniture and items I am trying to re purpose or sell on Craigslist. This was my old office rug and since I don't have an office anymore I thought I might try to use it for another room. I really was not sure how I would like it or not may be I would sell it or something. Now that it is done I could not like it more. I thought I would cut it in half for my kitchenette table space but I really like it too much. I think I may be revamping my dining room,
Coming Soon.
It was a plain old Berber $40 white rug. I had art charcoal and paint on it, but for the most part it is in good shape.
I measured the best I could and did my pattern. I was not perfect about it as I wanted it to look worn and besides, I do not like to measure. With a 4 month old I barely have time to do this.
I measured with a school ruler to make sure as I laid the tape down it was even acrossed.
Then my kids Danced a jig and rubbed the tape down.
My younger boy spritzed the rug with water and I painted with brush to rub it in. I also added water as I went to let it soak into the fibers.
I had the paint watered down 2:1 water.
I was happy the paint did not run under the tape,
It must have been the Jig.
I Love, Love, Love it!! The teal turned out fantastic.
I love Chevron's.
I am so ready for spring and great bright colors. I have big plans to add color with my Thrift store finds. Stop in and check those out, Coming soon.
Leave some love, I love to hear from you and I always encourage pinning.
I am linked with these parties:
