Carpet Sample Area Rug

So what else can you do with a bunch of carpet samples...?
Sunny over at Life In Rehab had a good idea.

Duck tape (is it duct or duck...?) the bottoms together and I have an awesome new area rug.
Eek!!!  I love it!

I just snagged some more of those carpet samples, laid out my color design like a giant puzzle and taped it all together.

Close up.

Even Turkish the dog martian likes it.

Beautiful!
A quick and easy area rug!  Yippee!

    I like this rug. I don't have kids at home but I do have pups and this would be perfect!

    I love this!! I want to try it, can you just go to the store and get samples or do you pay for them?

    I absolutely LOVE LOVE this and definitely need to try it out. Not too long ago we were wondering why my little grandson was being so quiet...he was PAINTING PAPERS YELLOW on his bedroom floor...along with his bedroom carpet!! LOLOL this would be a great "coverup" over the yellow!!
