What You Will Need

  • Old Rug
  • Krylon Spray Paint
  • Scrap cardboard

Instructions

  • Spray paint the entire rug to give it a solid color base (I used gray) with Krylon spray paint.
  • If you want to add stripes, spread out pieces of cardboard to protect the gray parts while you make the stripes.
  • Let the rug dry thoroughly (about 48 hours). Then you can put it in the house to use.
