Hooked Rug Footstool

By Amy

hooked rug footstool

I am vertically challenged, so a hooked rug footstool works great for me

to put my feet on while I am sitting in a chair and crafting something.

I used blues for the thread in this sewing notions hooked rug

so it would match the colors in my sewing room.

Finished stool

Dad made a wood foot stool for me

with a top just slightly larger than my finished rug.

If you don’t have someone to make a stool for you,

you could find a new or vintage foot stool and hook a rug slightly smaller!

Paint the Stool:

I painted the wooden stool with gold paint and then ecru paint;

sanded it down a little to make it look worn;

and used a walnut colored wax to finish it.

Attach the Hooked Rug to the Stool:

Then, I used carpet tacks to attach the rug

to the top of the stool.

Attaching the hooked rug to the stool with carpet tacks

Separate the loops of wool to put a tack in between two loops.

I added tacks at each of the corners and a few down each side.

Finished stool

The stool is the perfect height to rest my feet on

while I am crafting in my sewing room!

Blessings~
Amy

About Me

Our small farm is nestled amongst the Amish. We have a few cows, some sheep, a labradoodle, one calico cat, and lots of wide open spaces for our children to roam. I enjoy making primitive needle punch, wool creations, and learning how to spin the wool from our sheep. Read more...
