Stenciled carpet

Recently we have purchased a home that we will be moving into hopefully soon. The entire place needs a face lift. ( Paneled walls, nasty floors, ancient lights and it goes on and on).
 A couple of the rooms we will not be replacing the carpet just yet. My soon to be office is one of those rooms, so i decided I needed to make it a bit more interesting.

I stenciled a design around the perimeter of the room on the carpet. Yes I did say carpet, not a throw rug.

It now looks like an area rug on the floor and not just a plain gold carpet. It was so simple and quick to do anyone can do it.
          I will attempt to post a tutorial soon.
