I’ve been dreaming up this DIY for months—since I built the custom cabinetry in my sitting room—and I finally made it happen! ✨ Today, I’m creating a large-scale, custom artwork using a vintage rug as the main focal point as I continue to makeover this space. This project is a cost-conscious way to get a high-end look, renter-friendly, and completely customizable to fit your home.

If you love the look of framed textiles but don’t want to spend thousands on custom framing, this DIY is for you! Whether you’re looking for a statement piece, an alternative way to display a beautiful textile, or an easy and affordable art solution, this video walks you through the process step by step—including ways to make this project work for different budgets.

💬 Let me know in the comments what you think of the final look! Would you try this in your home?
