Say that three times - Blue braided rug, blue braided rug, blue braided rug!
Fiasco seems interested.
It's not perfect, but then what is?
I used both Doreen's and Casey's tutorials. I braided about 1 yard each of three colors of yarn. One of them was variegated and I like the look. I forgot to measure the finished length of the braid but it turned out to make a 2 1/2 inch circle. Next time I'll make a longer braid!
I tried gluing it, waited for the glue to dry, but it came apart when I picked it up. I just sewed it together like Grandma used to do. It didn't take long and now I know it won't fall apart!
I'm going to make several of these rugs for my beach house. I also want to make a rope rug or two.
Right now I'm working on a couple of little lamps. Here's an idea I found somewhere.
I really need to make some tables for them to sit on too!
Beautiful mini blessings,

I love hand made rugs! Yours are pretty and know you'll enjoy using them. Don't worry about 'not perfect'; after a while the middle will wear flat and it will look perfect. -smile-
I enjoy woven rag rugs and crochet rag rugs as well.
So funny! Imagine a dollhouse rug getting worn in the middle! How cute!
oh, I love that lamp- it would be perfect in your house!! The rug looks great- I like the rope one too- looks like it should be in a mud room or entryway. Can't wait to see the lamps!!! You are a mini making machine :)
We braided scrap material for rungs when children, Mother sewed them together. Lovely creations, the lamp I saw on HGTV, awesome. TTFN ~Marydon
