No Sew Denim Rug
"I went into my son's room and spotted an unsightly burn in the middle of the carpet. He says it was a candle but I have my suspicions! Anyway, I needed to think of a way to cover it up, and that's when I came up with the idea of making an upcycled denim rug. All I used was some old jeans which I cut up into denim yarn and an old rope. This rug is so easy to make, no-sewing, no-glue and no-crocheting needed. The technique is so easy and unique visit for tutorial and video. "
