Modern and Traditional Rag Rugs

Creativity is by definition the use of imagination or original ideas to create something new. This can be accomplished by looking at things from a different perspective or just a simple change in attitude. Rag rugs for example were the most recyclable and sustainable item in the house. They were made of scraps of fabric from clothing that was no longer wearable. They were for the hallway, entryway etc. but they were ALWAYS for the floor. Now in the spirit of creativity taking this item and “repurposing” it for a pillow or even a handbag may be sacrilege, but you have to admit there is something fresh about these items.  Thus the question is why we haven’t thought of it before – that’s what we call innovation, creativity or moving forward.

We still make rag rugs and rag rug items in the traditional manner of using remnants of 100% cotton fabrics. In addition to the traditional vertical stripe design we weave some more modern designs to give the rag rug fresh look.
