Editing an Area Rug - From the Mind of Christine McConnell
Added 2024-08-31 14:58:32 +0000 UTCHello!
The episode featuring the Newport trip with Mom is coming on Tuesday and the roof episodes will be coming towards the end of September :D
My cauldron is already bubbling with projects for fall and I'll be sharing an update on those soon! Until then, I hope you enjoy this project and wish you a lovely Labor Day Weekend...

Hey try using a light coat of scotchguard water shield spray on the top! It will act like a seal of sorts without messing with the texture.

2024-09-08 00:37:55 +0000 UTCI've been mulling over buying an airbrush. I've never really used one, and it seems like it would be fun to learn how! I never would have thought to use one on a rug, though! Great job!!

2024-09-07 18:07:15 +0000 UTCThe murder mystery you listened to Joan Robinson Hill, her house is currently up for sale!!! If anyone is interested you can Google it and there’s an article that talks about it and gives the address!

2024-09-07 01:02:11 +0000 UTCThe rugs turned out beautifully! I'm slightly surprised you didn't just jump into tufting your own :D

2024-09-06 15:27:28 +0000 UTCThis is so brilliant and resourceful, but I wonder how you emtgey would clean if something were to get in the carpet

2024-09-02 23:53:48 +0000 UTCThank you for inspiring me with your love for old-fashioned and beautifully spooky things. I just took a big leap of faith and bought a beautiful 1880s Italianate Victorian home in New York (after years of promising myself I would)--I can't wait to try out some of your techniques and DIYs there as I bring it back to its prime.

2024-09-02 15:21:13 +0000 UTCYou are so talented and creative and imaginative! I just love watching your videos! You inspire me to do crafts around the home! I just look at a project and ask myself, "What would Christine do?", and come up with ways to rejuvenate my 1900 colonial. Looking forward to your Autumn vids. =)

2024-09-01 22:07:57 +0000 UTCAmazing! Who would have thought to airbrush a rug? (You.) :)

2024-09-01 01:36:37 +0000 UTCFirst of all, your dress looks awesome on you. I would have never thought it was possible to change the color of a rug. Now I know better. The rugs look lovely in the room. Think I heard some new music near the end. So excited that spooky season is finally arriving!

2024-08-31 20:01:48 +0000 UTCChristine, you make something that most of us thinks is not possible not only possible but you do it with style and class! Thank you for a gorgeous and ghoulish Saturday! Just what I needed!

2024-08-31 17:27:56 +0000 UTCI'm hoping this will bring me the motivation I've been lacking lately. Thanks Christine! I can't wait for Autumn videos. 🍂 🥰

2024-08-31 16:40:40 +0000 UTCThis is an absolutely genius move. I would NEVER have thought to airbrush a rug! I'm lucky enough to have an antique persian rug that I inherited but I will definitely be trying this technique out on my next rug.
