Part 1 Chris Talty sent in a request for information on how to paint a sisal rug.
Sisal is hemp that is dried and spun.
It is one of the strongest natural fibers. Sisal is rougher than jute, but still supple and soft enough for bedrooms. Sisal rugs are generally woven into herringbone, ribbed, or boucle patterns. Sisal has become increasing popular in interiors, as homeowners return to natural fibers. The methods used to paint sisal are similar to other floor cloths materials, such as canvas.
