Evan is wanting a rug for his room now.... hmmm..... sounds like it may be a good little project for him.<br /><br />Another idea I've used in the past is carpet samples.

If you want a more professional look, you can buy the tape and the iron to heat the scraps together. I've done both. I don't have my carpet iron anymore, but there are times I wished I did!Wendy Raehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15996794861795151328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2956164737211936000.post-12065389322190959662012-07-22T17:03:58.946-04:002012-07-22T17:03:58.946-04:00Im still working on them!
