We had carpeting done in our upstairs and paid a good mint for it.
With scraps of left-over carpeting, I did some garbage collecting and found enough carpet to cover a basement landing and the stairs.
For the landing, I combined about 5 pieces (like a puzzle) and pushed them tight together. However, you do see the seams slightly.
Is there way (type of glue) I can use to almost mesh/glue the carpet fibres close together to avoid the obvious puzzle look? I have read in home improvement books that you can get some kind of glue machine that glues the base of the carpet. However, I dont' want to spend any money of this type.
I have a glue gun that is used for arts/crafts that I was thinking of using in the seams, and as it is hot I would push the seams tightly together.. Does anyone have any advice or experience with this?
Thanks
