Stone Spa Mat

Source

Martha Stewart Living, June 2008

Introduction

This mat was created by taping together several smaller stone mats, available at garden centers.

Materials

Stone mats
Clear duct tape
Twill tape, 1 3/4 inches wide and as long as the perimeter of your mat plus 4 inches
Fabric glue
Needle and thread (optional)

Steps

Step 1 of 2

Turn the mats upside down, and place them next to one another on a work surface to create a mat of the desired size. Use the duct tape to secure the interior edges.
Step 2 of 2

Lay twill tape on an exterior edge of mat, leaving an inch of overhang along entire side. Use duct tape to secure. Fold corner for a mitered edge, and continue to next side. Repeat. Secure corners with fabric glue or a blind stitch.

Looks very pretty.. I collect rocks and pebbles when on vacation from the Great Lakes, I make birdhouses and lighthouses from them. Are these slippery? Seems to me they would be a bit slippery. Maybe a good idea for decorative use only

I hope the stone mats are smoother than they appear in the photo...looks like a good way to get a stone bruise to me!
