I found some decent textured carpet at Home Depot in some great colors. The Traffic Master Alpine is what I'm going to get in their Romance shade. It will match my van. Granted, it isn't 3" shag, but it is a wild color with a bit of texture. 15'x10' comes out to about $300 and change when you cut out the install. I'm gonna grab some carpet pad for the floor and bed, call it a day.
You hear the thunder of stampeding rhinos, elephants and tacky tigers This town ain't big enough for the both of us And it ain't me who's gonna leave

I want to do the vinyl plank that we used in the renovation house for my flooring, then get a bright red shag rug for the center as well. Who knows, that might all change by the time I get it to that point though. | | | Re: Sansom Shag Rugs | Joined: Sep 2019 Posts: 1,510 Likes: 172 Master Yard Rat | Master Yard Rat Joined: Sep 2019 Posts: 1,510 Likes: 172 | Dang!

What I would do and I did, drive around to garage sales at old houses in the area and ask if they have shag and are gonna renovate. You can pull old shag, at your discretion, out of some of these places in good shape. The old wool shag can't be killed like the polyester carpets today can be.

I've been keeping my eyes peeled, but sadly the stuff gets tossed so quick it's hard to get your hands on around here. | | | Re: Sansom Shag Rugs | Joined: Sep 2019 Posts: 1,510 Likes: 172 Master Yard Rat | Master Yard Rat Joined: Sep 2019 Posts: 1,510 Likes: 172 | What I would do and I did, drive around to garage sales at old houses in the area and ask if they have shag and are gonna renovate.

The houses are for sale and we know most owners gut that stuff.
