<p>My studio is usually a mishmash of fabric and projects and things to do and well, if we&#8217;re being honest, a tumbleweed or two of thread. And that&#8217;s always prevented me from putting anything on my studio floor &#8211; rugs collect thread like nobody&#8217;s business.</p>
<p>But my feet. They are cold! So this studio around I decided to treat myself to <a href="http://www.flor.com/fedora-oatmeal.html">a Flor rug</a> I&#8217;ve been keeping an eye on for ages. It&#8217;s made of 100% recycled fibers and feels like fuzzy felt. No pile means no collecting thread bits! So far it&#8217;s one of my favourite purchases for the new place.</p>

<p>flor dots make this entire process extremely easy. just stick them to a corner and go!</p>

<p>setup and layout. it&#8217;s worth noting that you&#8217;re actually supposed to move the furniture OUT of the way.</p>

<p>work in progress.</p>
<p><a title="assembled flor by mintyfresh, on Flickr" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/lilybug/6954548189/"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7180/6954548189_349fd27200.jpg" alt="assembled flor" width="500" height="333" /></a></p>
<p>finished product! ignore the horrendous ikea stool. it&#8217;s being replaced shortly by <a href="http://modernica.net/dowel-side-shell.html">one of these</a>. MUCH NICER.</p>
