Carpet Sample Reuse
ReadyMade, Issue 37

So you may not need a carpet square for nap time anymore (ah, we loved that!), but carpet samples are great materials for putting both zany and sophisticated home decor ideas into action. We add artistic wall hangings, place mats, pillows, and pet beds to this starter list from ReadyMade...and whatever else you can suggest below.

TOWER OF FLOWERS

SHAGADELIC HEADBOARD

Check out the three how-to's on these reuse projects here.

Cute ideas! My roommate got a large sample from his work, and we use it in our small tiled entry as a floormat. It picks up colours from the carpet, and fits perfectly over one tile!

How are these pieces joined together to make a rug? is there a special carpet glue which holds these pieces together?

They are probably just duct taped together on the bottom
