Project: Asian Paper Floor Mat

Today’s feature is from Style At Home with Project: Asian Paper Floor Mat:
This project, inspired by Asian wall hangings, will add some Eastern flair to your floors.
Use your favourite Asian papers on the floor by laminating them to a sturdy canvas base. Choose a light to medium weight paper that will easily absorb the diluted PVA glue and adhere well to the canvas surface.
For a free-form look, layer your papers into an interesting collage. For a more modern piece, create a tiled look using same-size squares.
What an interesting idea! Though floor mats are notorious magnets for dust, dirt and hair (even in low-traffic areas) and this surely isn’t something you could toss in the washer to clean. I do think though that both the top and bottom of the rug could be safely wiped with a damp sponge and a cleaning solution strong enough to kill cooties.

If you want to seal this there is a product by heat n bond, it is an Iron on vinyl. you could Iron it to the top of this then dirt would wipe off easily. in essence you would be laminating this. it is available at Joann stores for about $9.00
