A while back I talked to a few different people about marketing them and/or making something else out of them (bags, like using the rugs to be the flap on a messenger bag/tote or anything besides a pillow or wall hanging). What I learned is that the pressure from India and China reaches all the way into our hobby/craft niches. It is not a project I started with ideas of making money, but when times got hard, I looked into it because they *are* pretty cool.

Miniature oriental carpets are exactly what it sounds like.... 11x14 inches, roughly, and they are all different types from different geographical regions.... Persian, Caucasian, Kazak et al I will post a photo for you. Essentially, they would be lovely carpets for your home if you were the size of a Barbie or GI Joe doll. :)

on edit.... can't find the cord to upload a photo right now
