What if the bathroom and toilet, where the humidity level is especially elevated, is difficult to find the ideal option for rugs? Sometimes the situation is simply hopeless.
Having shown your imagination, you can make beautiful rugs from plastic bags, which will not only be used for their intended purpose, ensuring hygiene and ease of use, but also will decorate the rooms wonderfully.
Rugs from plastic bags. Their advantages
Firstly, they do not absorb moisture, and therefore do not retain dampness in the room. Secondly, do-it-yourself bath mats will perfectly decorate the room itself. You can make them colorful and varied. And, finally, thirdly, it’s not difficult to wash them, as well as to dry them. In addition, any such rugs from plastic bags can be placed not only in the bathroom or toilet, but also in front of the front door, where humidity is also often observed, dirt is collected from the street.
In a word, the use of these decoration elements is very practical, and if performed properly, it is aesthetically pleasing. And considering how easy they are to make, all you have to do is choose the colors and turn on your favorite film so that knitting rugs from plastic bags is not such a boring action.
The process of creating a masterpiece from pompons
There are two ways to make rugs from plastic bags. The first is the creation of fluffy pompons, which are then tied together. Such a rug will not only fulfill its direct functions, but will also adorn any room wonderfully. Such products look voluminous and interesting.
In order to make pompons, you need to cut strips of plastic bags (about a centimeter wide), wrap them on a template, and then dress them in the middle. After that, the edges are trimmed and the product is fluffed. Make such pompons as much as necessary for the intended size of the product. When you do this, you can sew them onto a net for carpets (sold in needlework stores). If you still can’t find one, you can make this mesh yourself by simply crocheting it.
Rugs from plastic bags. Knitting process
The second way to create a product is banal knitting. In addition to its standard properties, such a rug will be dense, it will be easier to wash under running water. In addition, you can make absolutely any patterns.
To make such a masterpiece, you will need strips three centimeters wide (you can two and a half), which you will then crochet. This process is long, but very exciting. You can knit according to the schemes that are used for ordinary threads (up to openwork weaving), or just make a continuous fabric. This is a matter of your taste and possibilities (after all, not everyone can crochet masterfully).
By the way, plastic bags are useful not only for rugs, but also for beach bags, vases, caskets and even slippers.
