hAVE YOU EVER THOUGHT ABOUT making your own rug?
neither have i.
It's a thought that has never crossed my mind, mainly because it seems like a really complex and challenging project.
The truth is, a few days ago, I saw a post from Paper & Stitch that completely changed my mind. Not only is it extremely easy, it is also very inexpensive (less than 50€), plus the final result is a totally original piece that you can boast about to everybody for having done it yourself.
Materials:
1. Choose what lenght you’d like your rug to be. Mine is 1,20m x 2m, which means I had to cut the netting into two 0,60m x 2m pieces.
2. Next cut the cotton piping into 10 cm pieces. The number of pieces you'll have to cut depends on the lenght you chose.
3. Weave the cotton pieces in between the netting grid and tie them with the rubber bands or use a needle and thread to sew them together.

5. After completely cover both netting pieces, repeat steps #3 and #4 but this time, you’ll be weaving pieces though the ends of each separate pieces of mesh to bring them together as one.
