Thread one end of a piece of scrap knit fabric through the end of the darning needle image 1. Line up the floor mats end to end the ends that you want to connect make sure that they are even.

Push the needle through one end of the floor mat image 2. If this project seems more complicated than you would like another option is to use stair tread covers instead.

A colorful carpet runner cascading down a flight of stairs is more than just a decor upgrade. Installing a carpet runner helps protect stairs from damage and wear. I wrote a post about that project here the problem with a stair runner is that i couldn t find one that was both long enough and pretty enough. I have been wanting to do a stair runner ever since i first finished the stairs.
