Description

Denim jeans are tough and durable but they don’t last forever. The volunteers at MCC Connections in Kidron, Ohio, recycle old jeans by making denim rugs after the knees wear out. Rugs soak up mud and dirt while protecting floors. When dirty, just wash like any pair of jeans. Hand-woven on a loom – no two alike. Approximate size 26″W x 48″L, 3 lb. USA made . Mennonite Central Committee (MCC) is a non-profit organization that helps people in need in America and around the world.Just down the road from Lehman’s, you’ll find the hardworking volunteers of MCC Connections. Recycling old donated jeans, they weave the denim by hand on a vintage two-harness loom, turning out these gorgeous rugs. They use every single inch of the jeans they can salvage.
