It’s Prince Harry and Meghan Markle like you’ve never seen them: “painted” out of carpet cleaner.
Welsh artist Nathan Wyburn, who has created previous royal portraits out of everything from pizza to onesies, crafted his latest work out of a dirty 20-ft. carpet.
“I’m a huge fan of the royals and had been thinking of a way of celebrating Harry and Meghan’s engagement for a while,” Wyburn, 28 — who was commissioned to create the portrait by stain remover Dr. Beckmann — tells People. “I basically just thought, ‘This is my golden opportunity.’ ”

The X Factor finalists have been given portraits - made out of Christmas food.
Luke Friend, Sam Bailey and Nicholas McDonald's faces have been painstakingly made out of turkey and sprouts by Britain's Got Talent star Nathan Wyburn, who previously wowed audiences with his toast and marmite picture of Simon Cowell.
He has now used two kilos of turkey, 144 slices of ham, 89 sprouts, 168 carrot batons, five large Christmas puddings and some mince pies to create stunning likenesses of the X Factor finalists.
The close-up shots of the pictures show pigs in blankets making up Friend's famous dreadlocks and sprouts, peas and carrots creating a rather fetching green jacket for McDonald.
The images were commissioned by Hotpoint, who are promoting their new range of small appliances, and took 36 hours to create.
The X Factor finalists have already shown that they are in the Christmas spirit, as they recently got together...

Jai McDowall Britain's Got Talent
This evening millions of viewers tuned in to watch Britain’s Got Talent’s penultimate semi final show of the 2011 series and at times, we bet they were sorry they did.
There were some very disappointing acts, Jessica Hobson, Mexican Mayhem and Nathan Wyburn to name a few. However, things picked up with the performances of Out Of The Blue, Jai McDowall and the hilariously funny Steven Hall.
At the end of the night, only two of the eight acts could pass through to Saturday’s grand finale to join Les Gibson, James Hobley, Ronan Parke, Jean Martyn, New Bounce and Paul Gbegbaje on the live extravaganza.
Ant and Dec revealed that Jai McDowall had won the show and received the most public votes, after wowing the public with his jaw dropping performance of Evanescence’s ‘Bring Me To Life.’

The fourth Britain's Got Talent semi-final looks like being the most competitive to date. Comedy performer Edward Reid, silly dancer Steven Hall, singer Jai McDowall, acapella act Out of the Blue and Jessica Hobson all look like potential contenders for Saturday's final. Toast artist Nathan Wyburn and the Mexican Mayhem dog double act should provide Simon Cowell with plenty to get his teeth stuck into as well. Digital Spy will be live-blogging proceedings as usual throughout the evening, so stick with us for updates and the best punditry online. 21:59:And that's a wrap. Jai McDowell and Steven Hall go through to the grand final, and Ant & Dec give a quick plug for Bgmt with Jessie J and Tinchy Stryder appearing. Thanks for all the memories kids. I'm off to rewatch Steven's dance on YouTube. It was like something from a David Lynch film. (more)...
