I finally made a big tufted rug with my Clawlab rug kit and I’m obsessed with how it turned out!
In this video, I walk you through the whole process step by step – from stretching the fabric, tufting the design, to gluing and finishing the backing so it’s ready to use in your home.
If you've been wanting to try rug tufting but felt intimidated, this project is super beginner-friendly and uses easy-to-find chunky yarn from the craft store.

How to prep, glue and finish the back so your rug lasts
Little mistakes I made (and how to avoid them!)
