[@janhughes7786]

I'm finally going to paint my old IKEA rug after watching this about 50 times over the last year. I have insomnia so I always feel like you keep me company. Thank you ☺️

[@zandjfamily101]

Don’t really care if your videos aren’t daily. You do a great job and you are fun to watch. I love your tutorials

[@sarahs.9340]

You are bold girl, would have never thought to paint a rug. This is why so many people following you, I'm subbing.

[@salvagedbykscott]

You are a magical, sparklie unicorn creature. I ❤️ watching you create!

[@LucidityMe]

Why do you not have like a million subs? Why am I just finding you? I'm about to be 45 myself. I've been wanting to get crafting and painting again. You have inspired me lady!!

[@lauragonzales7736]

You never disapoint. This is absolutely stunning. I will definitely try my hand at paint a rug for the living room. I'm thinking flowers.

[@joicooper2883]

[@arizona6494]

The rug is beautiful..!! You are wonderful..!! I wish you the BEST.

[@dlwoolman]

Painstaking! But that carpet looks AWESOME! And I loved watching you explain it all so well.

[@redhotsweetpotatoe]

Yeahhhhhhh! I know you've experienced some.... rough times but you are still going strong and creating amazing work. Love the design and bright colors. So cheerful, so you.

[@xirby]

I'm so glad you are making new videos. I came across your channel about 3 or 4 months ago, and I thought you weren't creating new content.

[@Angie-ci1lp]

You put a LOT of details and love into ALL YOUR PROJECTS!

[@ArchieLovesMe]

That rug is beautiful! You’re just the coolest, period. And I love the spraying it with water idea. Smart!

[@ledafoley7043]

I love the rug and the paint colors Debi! I may have to copy this one!!

[@steverickard4633]

Glad to see you back Debbie.

[@trulocks]

Debi...I love watching your videos...you are so creative!...you truly give a new meaning to "think outside the box"

[@ValyTraveler]

I drop just about everything when you or Mark Montano post... DIY is all I'm about on my budget... Thanks for posting...

[@JudiChristopher]

Laughing ... I just came from Mark's video...

[@Patricia.R.]

As I was vacuuming my old brown rug in the entry this morning, I was thinking... I should paint this thing! I was so excited when I as able to sit down at the pc and SAW YOUR VIDEO! Yay! I truly love this idea! It's because of you my living room couch is ORANGE... I'll have to send you photo of my couch, when it's finished. ;) Love how your rug turned out and it goes wonderfully well with the couch!

[@sugarpop7377]

Wow ! That was amazing . I would happily have this rug at home .

[@percyperanamus7432]

ive missed ur vids so much! can't wait to listen to the podcast. it was also such a great idea to pair the glass table with the rug, it's classy and helps you focus on the rug as the main piece - it all looks really great

[@lzrd8460]

Love, love, love your carpet. I'm going to attempt to paint an old carpet for my covered veranda this spring and this has given me lots of ideas. Thanks Debi - you're the best.

[@kamadesign8140]

At first I was like "oh no what are you doing with the light turquoise shading?", but when you sprayed it with water it turned out so good!

[@StormyGeddon]

You can't be older than 25 at the most. That's crazy. You look amazing. The rug turned out beautifully too. Love your videos.

[@Jbiamonte]

OMG! I love you. I just discovered you today and I am just loving your stuff. I love your style and I am loving the things that I have seen so far...I'm going to use the things that I have learned to diy . I wish I had more time. But thank you so much. You are great. Keep it up!

[@Pilarrc328]

Amazing Debbie, so creative, thank you I’m learning a lot with you but the most important is the beautiful actitud!!

[@patriciasummers8881]

Hi Debi! I really enjoyed the couch and this rug video. You are so funny too - GREAT sense of humor. I would like to suggest that you post good shots of the complete before and after too. Either at the beginning or at the end. That would be a huge impact. As it is I can really only get a little glimpse of the total picture. Thanks for making your videos.

[@MrSaadia27]

Love the dance I can wait for the patio makeover

[@shizzledesign]

Debi, this is super cute! I need a vacation to catch up on all four videos!!

[@marthatorres3648]

WOW! I love the rug it came out beautiful!!! I totally want to try this! You did great

[@JudiChristopher]

I love your rug.... Beautiful Let me give you another thought about painting rugs.... Remember about Floorcloths??? Take a Painter's Drop Cloth (8 - 10 oz. Duck fabric) Buy it Harbor Freight or Lowe's etc... it will already be hem' Use exterior house paint or just plain acrylic... it is thicker... sand it then put a couple of coats of Poly on it... BEAUTIFUL... Look up Floorcloths on ETSY...

[@haileypeterson1936]

Wow!! That turned out absolutely beautiful! You are such a talented painter and very creative!

[@cj7397]

[@josisiefker6509]

Fantastic outcome Debi! You always make me laugh too!

[@pauline8547]

You are so creative and I love your channel so much, I missed your videos!

[@paulat7659]

I agree with you other subscribers you look waaaayyy younger than 45. I figured you were in your early to mid 30s. Anyway cant wait to listen to your podcast after this video. Hope you talk about your life and all that good stuff. Hugs from Wichita, KS!!

The rug turned out beautiful! Great job Deb!

[@shaneomack5018]

brilliant...had my reservations on if it would stick to carpet like that but I'm blown away. and btw you are not 45...no way..you look fantastic

[@sandyknoff9980]

The color combinations are really good! I want to stencil my front door!

[@annaibarra3447]

Love the carpet, came out so good. I may consider trying it.

[@michelles1517]

I only found you because i woke up in the middle of the night heart burn so I’ve been sipping Apple cider vinegar, but I want to paint a rug that someone just gave me. I think you rug looks beautiful! I will look into that paint but I definitely will not do that pattern. Way too tedious and I have company coming on Thursday. That looks like a very tight weave and I have a softer type. How long does it take to dry? DIY paint where do I buy it?? how expensive is it? There is a cool flower pattern but I just want to white wash it . I still have heartburn, had a turkey burger with green peppers and onions last night. I don’t know Dr. Berg recommended on KZbin Apple Cider vinegar. I might try baking soda in a few minutes. I’m living a place DIY which I’ve been doing for 50 years. I’ve always done that kind of stuff!

[@deadgamer7785]

That is an awesome looking rug!

[@eileenbadgewick3469]

Boho rug goodness ✨✨✨cha cha!

[@sherylm3678]

You go girl, that's beautiful!

[@amethystsamia]

I adore the Debbie Show! This is amazing and I can see myself doing this in the future. Just wish I. Oils get your paints online. I'll have to drive about 3 hours to find them. WORTH IT!

[@hollyrepp5665]

Absolutely beautiful, clever girl, love your videos.

[@idahogirlb]

Thanks for sharing. You are inspiring me so much. Thoughts From the Past coming back ideas to do thank you.

[@annies.9418]

Looks awesome Debi!!! What a great idea!!!❤

[@KiwiJane1]

fabulous DIY! I would seek out a thrift rug or yard sale rug and save the $50, giving it a good shampooing first. I may try this on a smaller rug and see how it goes. Thanks for sharing!! :-)

[@MelindasLifeandstyle]

Oh wow! That is awesome!! Melinda

[@rneustel388]

Outstanding! Fabulous! Stunning!

[@Twinklestar132]

[@curlypdub9283]

Wow it looks beautiful I have a multi color rug but I want to paint it into a beige color and then add black to give it an African mud cloth design. I am going to attempt to film that as well.

[@WelshLadOfficial]

Amazing job Debi !!!! Love what do did to the rug 💚💚💚 can’t wait for the next video x

[@carmel-wayfinder5401]

[@sillyshenanigan2108]

Awesome!!! I luv everything youve done!!

[@antidotetochaoschats]

Love this rug. I'm gonna try this

[@dechinta]

I was stressing trying to get everything done in my house, or my previous house, and a friend told me to calm down and stop worrying. She said, "You've got a 30 year mortgage! Slow down!"

[@hodatarek119]

wowwwwwww!! thanks for sharing this lovely technique you have a new subscriber

[@Supernidyastar78]

Looks beautiful very inspiring, thanks.

[@SimplyHandmade]

The rug compliments the couch so well!!! How long did it take to do this? I️ can imagine it took long. I️ also love the water bottle idea to blend in the colors. It married them so well!

[@Shyeena]

Simply Handmade she said a week. She's dedicated! It took me a week on one project- ONCE- I discovered I lose my creative punch on any ONE LONG term project so never Again- I hate that feeling of "I just want to get done and move on!" That's when it's like a job 😝

[@lblincoe2094]

I know this is an old comment, so my reply may have no relevance anymore 😆 BUT I feel the same way you do! I start getting impatient when I'm on one project for too long, it makes me sloppy, and then I lose inspiration... But, I've learned that if I have 2 or 3 long term projects simultaneously running side by side, and I can freely bounce back and forth between them when I feel inspired to work on whichever particular one, instead of feeling tied down like "I can't move on until this is complete!" that I don't burn out on these larger type of projects and I'm always happy with how they turn out. I know some people might feel disorganized and overwhelmed having so much up in the air at once like that, but as long as there's no deadline to rush me, I feel the variety keeps the work fresh and let's me commit more to longer term projects. Just an idea that could maybe help you out, if you ever want to consider tackling a larger project again 😉

[@loricolleran2014]

Turned out great!!

[@divinagarcia1494]

Debi your so amazing I love the video it is something how you can turn something ordinary into something amazing it inspires me👍👍👍💛💛💛

[@heartbreakbrook]

[@horrisajones8933]
