[Etsy](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/floof-snuggle-sack-and-floor-pillow) user Old Tyme Notions is selling a [handmade Big Lebowski rug](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cresco-rug) featuring the face of the cult film's protagonist, The Dude,played by actor Jeff Bridges. This rug is made from [19 different colors of acrylic yarn](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/weave-collection) to give the Dude's face the depth of a photograph. The rug has Jeff Bridge's Dude staring up gleefully from the floor and would certainly make a unique edition to any household. In the film, one very specific rug was the center of a famous humorous scene and the line "it really ties the room together" has since become a popular meme on the Internet.

The Big Lebowski Rug is a one-of-a-kind project selling for a hefty $800 dollars on Etsy and it is a great tribute o an iconic film.
