Painting a rug

I have been looking for a pink rug for Alyssa's room, and my sister was getting my niece a new one because she hates pink, so of course I took that one. Well once I got it down in Alyssa's room I noticed a lot of paint stains on it, but it has been so hard to find a decent size pink one so I had to keep it. After thinking about what I could do I called my son Joe and told him we are gonna paint the rug. Yes he looked at me funny but we got to work not knowing what we were gonna do, and I think being it's the first time we ever painted a rug before that it turned out good and we were able to cover all the other paint stains.
