How to Choose Quaint Bathroom Accessories

How to choose bathroom accessories:
Choosing bathroom accessories is easy if you have your design laid out. Artisans often recommend that you make up a blue print before re-designing your bath even if you are adding bathroom accessories. You want to scope out the area first to consider what accessories would look best in your area.

For quaint baths, you want to keep in mind that you are choosing bathroom accessories for old-fashioned or picturesque rooms. Of course, you want to choose charming items, yet you want to keep it on the traditional level. Sometimes traditional rooms require a twist of odd and peculiar items that make it appealing to the eye. When designing quaint environments, why not consider braided rugs?

How to choose braided rugs:
Braided rugs include the handcrafted rugs made from “sweatshirt fleece.” The rugs are easy to make, otherwise you can find the rugs in any craft store.

How are the rugs made?
From narrow pieces of wool: You can use soft fleece from sweatshirts to make the wool. Choose the high-fiber cottons, since the material is easy washed. In addition, the rugs absorb better than other materials. To create traditional, try using a variety of fibers.

How do I choose materials?
You will need fleece from sweatshirts to create your braid. Choose a variety of colors, unless you prefer plain. You will also need a sewers mat and a pair of rotary cutters, as well as thread designed to hold up to heavy material. In addition, you will need Braidkin, or similar lacers.

How do I choose the needle?
You should consider the large-eye needles, such as the craft needles with round and blunted ends. You will need common craft thread and needles as well.

Do I need anything else to finish the rug?
Sure, you will need clamps to hold your fabric in place. In addition, you will need clothespins, which you can use to secure the ends of your braided rug while adding lace. The last item you will need is a non-slip mat/pad. You want to slip the pad beneath the rug once you are finished.



How do I get started?
Getting started is easy. You merely cut 2-inches into the fleece, and strip it transversely over the width of the material. Take 2 strips of the fabric and bring them together, bringing your fleeces in union, and on the bias begin stitching. You will need to trim the seams making allowances at ¼ or ½ inches, depending on your volume. To open the seam, use your fingers and press. At the raw edges of our material, fold it until it meets with the middle region and stretch our strip until it faintly rolls the edges inwardly. At the edges, fold, bringing your 3rd strip to the middle of the cloth and fold it again in half. Make sure the sides are open toward the right of the fabric. Next, at your strip, insert your needle and thread, layering it until the strips join, starting again with the first step, leave seam allowances, and fold the strips to join in half. Enclose the end of your third strip, and finish by stitching the rug together. Now you have the bathroom accessories of the century created by your own hands.
