Details

Come learn how to repurpose your used clothes into a beautiful rag rug! Jen will walk you through each step, so there's no experience required!

Originating in North America in the late 1500s, braided rags are scrappy and durable and an excellent way to reduce "fashion waste". According to statistics, consumers throw away an average of 70 pounds of clothing and shoes per person, annually. Let's budge those stats a little and be "producers" instead.

Instructions

7-15 used t-shirts to get you started
