What's the white powder under my rug??

Do you have a hand-tufted rug? Did you notice that there was white powder under it? The white powder under your rug is latex, and its powdery mess is a common occurrence with hand-tufted rugs. Hand-tufted rugs are constructed from different parts that are "glued" together. There is a canvas with the design mapped out that the wool strands are inserted into using a tufting gun. This is a quick and cheap way of making a plush rug with amazing colours and endless design possibilities.

Graphic Design - WWFA

They wanted to keep the colours consistent with their website and keep it simple but sophisticated. Here are a few images of the project:
