Floorcloths are canvas rugs that can be used on any hard surface such as hardwood floors, tile or linoleum. They can be custom made to each clients specifications and are a tool used by many interior designers to custom match a specific paint color or to "tie together" many elements in a room or total design scheme.
Historic Floorcloths uses interior latex wall paint as well as acrylics to create a one-of-kind work of art. Clients can provide the paint manufacturer and color name to match precisely to the colors in their home or provide leftover paint for a custom match. We use heavyweight canvas with 6 coats of paint and 3 coats of non-yellowing varnish for added durability.
Historic Floorcloths also uses an in-house color palette of traditional Early American colors and Children's room bright colors to create an exciting new work of art.
Area rugs have a 2 inch hem with a mitered seam. All work is signed by the artist on the back hem. Work can also be signed on the front or not at all, upon request.
A personalized message can be included on the back hem for gift giving. We can also ship directly to the recipients address. Historic Floorcloths' table runnners, placemats and area rugs make great gifts, and what new mom wouldn't love an area rug to be used as a personalized entry mat for the room of their new 'bundle of joy?'
