My Project

I am requesting help getting a cozy, large classroom rugs for my students. I spend a lot of time reading, and I like my students to sit in front of my rocking chair. A rug would make it more comfortable for them, and it makes the entire room more like home. My students are very special to me, and they appreciate everything I do for them. i want to do this for them because they've asked many times. We all know how expensive rugs are, and I wanted one that was fire retardant.
