DIY donut rug project
For a project that you and your grandchildren will love, you have to make this fun and colourful DIY donut rug.
You will need:
- Spray paint
- Acrylic paint
- Tape
- Paint brushes
- Round Ikea rug
- Circle to trace
- Craft knife
- Craft paper
How to:
- Lay out newspaper to work upon.
- Using a plate or any circular object, trace a circle into the middle of the rug. Using your craft knife, cut it out.
- Use your craft paper to create the stencil for the wiggly design of the icing. Cover the rug with the craft paper and cut out a wavy icing design, leaving a few cm of paper remaining on the perimeter that will stay brown.
- Use weighted objects from around the house to hold down the paper. Spray paint your icing on using several layers. Let dry.
- Using your tape, create rectangular sprinkle stencils. Paint them in using a paint brush and acrylic paint. Remove stencils and let dry.
- If desired, cut out a “bite mark” using your craft knife or leave donut intact.
