Ever wanted to make your own rope doormat? Now it’s the perfect time to put those dreams into action because I’ve got the coolest project ever: a coiled rope rug!
Roughly estimate the final pattern and the size of your coiled rope rug. Sew the trivets together with the same zig-zag stitch you used for making the trivets.
Once the rug pattern is drawn onto the rubber mat, remove the rope rug and cut out the rubber pattern, using your craft scissors. You need strong scissors with a sharp tip or a razor knife able to offer good hand control.
Cover one side of the rubber mat with construction adhesive. Press the rope rug onto the rubber mat and apply even pressure with a hard object that is larger than the mat (or use or a stack of heavy books).
