The Art of Toothbrush Rug Making
3-Hour Workshop
12 pm - 3 pm EDT, Friday, October 16

Toothbrush rug making is an easy, quick craft that utilizes new or used fabrics in the ways of our foremothers. Cotton fabrics are the most economical as they provide durability, washability, and extended wear. This class will walk you through the process of creating beautiful and functional rugs using a simple knotting technique.
All Levels
