MaryContrary was inspired by another post on Dollar Store Crafts to de-skid a handmade crocheted rug with a shelf liner. Mary took the rug she crocheted (isn’t it cool?) and attached the non-stick shelf liner to the bottom. The shelf liner works well to keep the otherwise slippery rug from sliding all over the place!

It looks great! You can use that shelf liner stuff for all kinds of cool craft projects! I am crocheting some rag rugs right now, myself, so I will probably pick up another roll of shelf liner to attach to them to keep them from sliding around on my hardwood flooring.
Project Estimate:
- Shelf liner, $1
- Rug, on hand
Total cost: $1

I use shelf liner as carpet liner too!! It is SO MUCH CHEAPER than the stuff that is made for rugs but its the same thing. Its amazing how much of a rip off they are!
I also use shelf liner (the heavy duty kind) underneath my couch cushions to keep them from sliding around, and you can put it between the frame and mattress to keep futons in place. I love all the great ideas on this site. Thanks!
