I have always had a special place in my heart for canvas rugs. I'm not sure how this came about, or even where I had really seen one for the first time. But I came across an artist, Brenda Woods at Artistry Underfoot at a craft show a couple of years ago. Oh my heart skipped a beat, there it was in my colors, bright, original and yes, I bought it. This rug is amazing! So easy to keep clean, I dust it with a swifter mop and then steam mop. The colors stay so pretty and I just put a couple of pieces of rubber shelf padding on each end to keep it from slipping on my tile floor. It brightens up any room.
Yes, that's glitter, just as bright as the day I brought it home! The rugs are constructed from heavy weight cotton canvas, hand painted, hand finished, and completely sealed for protection and long lasting wear. If you want to attempt this yourself, there are multiple sites on the internet to get you started, but it's always nice to buy from a local artist with this much talent! Floor canvas rugs or floorcloths have many different names and our part of our heritage.
