This is the ultimate eco-friendly home project! Instead of throwing out old cotton clothes, you can braid or weave them into a beautiful, squishy, and washable floor mat. It’s soft underfoot and adds a lovely, homespun touch to any room.
The Braided Rug Method:
Make Fabric “Yarn”: Cut old t-shirts, pajamas, or bed sheets into long, continuous 1-inch wide strips.
Braid: Take three strips and braid them together tightly, knotting on new strips as needed to create one very long, continuous braided rope.
Coil & Sew: Starting from the center, coil the braided rope around itself, hand-sewing the coils together with a strong thread and needle with each circle.
For a flower design, you can create separate, smaller braided circles in contrasting colors and sew them onto a plain mat base to form flower shapes. It’s a rewarding project that turns fabric waste into a cherished household item.
