Painters drop cloth is the perfect solution to make a homemade canvas rug. You can get a huge piece of durable, heavy duty fabric for around twenty bucks at a hardware store. Painters drop cloth is ideal for kids to play on without risking damage to an expensive rug. You can also make a gorgeous outdoor rug that you can easily spray down with the hose if it gets dirty and dry it in the sun.
Customize your canvas rug using repeated shapes or bold colors. It’s helpful to trace the pattern onto the canvas material before you begin painting. I love this brightly painted canvas rug with repeating squares.
