Have you always warned about a large, beautiful carpet on your hard floor, but found that prices are too expensive for your instant budget? Create a "faux" (fake) mat with paint and stencils that you can be proud of. It's not easy, but fun!
Your first order is to determine the size of the required rug, the design to be used, and its placement on the floor.
Then choose one or two stencils that can be combined (say, the central design of a large leaf and grapes), or if you are a fan of more modern designs, you can simply copy geometric shapes to create your own design.
The type of paint used and surface preparation will depend entirely on the type of floor you are working with. It is better to consult with your local paint shop for the correct types of paints and sealants.
Just start by saying that the floor will be creaky, and then pour the square or rectangle onto the floor in the size that you want your finished mat to be in.
Paint the background color of your choice inside the ribbon lines and let the paint dry.
Mark the smaller square in the center of your rug design and paint this area with a different, but coordinating, color for the background color that you used overall.
Stencil big motive in the center. In the area outside this new square, a stencil is another design that goes around the inside edges of your carpet design. Another idea would be to use a small stencil design and a stencil throughout, a random pattern in different shades. You can become as creative and thoughtful as you like.
Need ideas? Go to the carpet shop and find plenty of planning options! Or are you looking for "Area Rugs" on the line from the comfort of your home to the coolest downtime
Modern designs can be carried out randomly, removing squares, rectangles, triangles or circles over the area of the rug and drawing them, coordinating the decoration of colors in your room. A cool design is done simply by hand painting thick eddies of colored or squeaky lines, and then the outline of your carpet with a coordinating and deeper color.
Your internal floors are not the only place where you can make an artificial carpet. Try one on your own porch, right in the center of the pavement or cement yard, or paint the full length of your staircase.
If you are afraid to try painting on the wall, create a “hanging carpet” instead! So funny.
These are fun and creative projects with no limits! All that you can stencil on the wall, can be applied to your floor in your artificial rug, so use it as a canvas for designs that you really like.
The correct sealant will depend on the floor surface, so contact your local hardware or home store for help.
