I just finished up this Turkey Rug for a client. Still have to put the backing on it, but thought I would share it with everyone. It will be going on a wall just like a bear rug. Take care and talk with you soon. John

Very cool. I think you should put a waterproof backer on it and use it for your toilet rug.

Thanks for the compliments guy's. Charlie, I charge right around $250.00 for a completed rug, depending if I have to repair any major damage etc. My clients like it because it gives them yet another option when they are considering space and money.
tlbradford, I don't know about the toilet rug bud
Now, maybe on the bathroom wall to drool over while your doing the deed, that's possible.
Talk with you all soon. John

What an awesome idea. Very curious about seeing what this looks like when you are completed.
