Rug Painting
We can use fabricate dyes to dye the cotton foundation that is showing through the worn areas. This is a cheaper alternative to re-weaving.
Before and After of an antique rug we restored by reducing the size and patching in the missing areas. Both sides were re-serged, both ends re-fringed, border patched, and foundation painted to bring the rug back to life. This is a much cheaper alternative to restore worn rugs without reweaving.
