How to Make a Wolf Rug

Animal skin rugs are very popular for home decoration. The rugs give a room the appearance of nature and the outdoors without having to go outside. However, animal furs and skins can be costly and prevent people from purchasing them.

Fur or faux fur pelt
Needle
Thick thread
Fabric backing
Carpet treatment

Instructions

- 1
  Treat the fur pelt or prepare your faux fur pelt. If you are using a pelt from an actual animal, the fur could be dirty or will not hold up over time if you don’t treat it. Clean the fur and treat it with normal carpet treatment before you begin.
- 2
  Lay out your faux fur or your real fur pelt. You can buy faux fur at Hollywood Love Rugs or another faux fur store.
- 3
  Pick out your extra fabric. In order to make a fashionable rug, you will need to put a piece of fabric underneath the pelt to for a household rug. Silk is recommended, but any fabric you would like is fine.
- 4
  Cut the fabric. Fit the fabric to the pelt and cut it in the same shape so that it will be hidden once you sew it onto the fur pelt.
- 5
  Sew on the fabric. Use a thread color that blends in with the fur and use your sewing machine or a needle to sew the fabric around the edges to cover the bottom of the fur.
