faded old blue jeans...rug?

There's really nothing better than a great pair of comfy worn out jeans.  Jeans reflect my laid-back, vintage, rustic style.  So, I've been looking for a rug for my main living area.  Since we have concrete floors, I wanted a large rug, at least 8'x10'.  Do you know how much nice rugs that large cost?  It's crazy.

I thought about trying to make a rug myself but I needed something warm and durable.  What's more durable than denim? blue jeans?  I wonder if I could find a rug made out of blue jeans?  Yes I can.  Can I find a large one?  Yes I can.  Will it be too expensive?  Yes it will.  Darn.  I looked everywhere and I just wasn't willing to pay $400, $500, $1000 for a rug.

I can't remember how I happened upon it but I finally found a large denim rug, just my style, made out of real old blue jeans...and in my price range...and in the most unusual place...a children's store.

Land of Nod

Oh my goodness, it's so awesome.  We don't have to be careful with it.  

It doesn't really show dirt.  It's great!

I think I want another one, maybe three!
