You've seen painted rugs before, and the idea seems easy enough, but what about those more complicated patterns you see in magazines? Can you recreate that look too? Yes, you can. And you don't even have to be the best DIYer on the block!
Using a combination of airbrushing and standard brush painting, Sarah from Sarah M. Dorsey Designs will show you how to paint a pattern rug with your own stencils, paint, and a little imagination.
