Sometimes, it can be difficult to find the perfect welcome mat that matches your aesthetic. When in doubt, make one yourself! This DIY is an easy and relatively cost effective project to complete, as it only requires a few supplies.

What you need:

  1. Coir Doormat, these can be found on Amazon, at Walmart, Target, Hobby Lobby, Michaels, and other stores that carry home and project materials.

  2. Acrylic Paint, you will want to grab extra paint, as this project takes a large amount. Some crafters use rubber spray instead of paint as it may last longer, but the choice is up to you!

  3. Stencils, these can be found in craft stores, online, or you can opt to forego this step completely. If you feel confident in your freehand abilities, go for it!

  4. Paint Brushes, different sizes of paint brushes and sponge brushes are recommended

  5. FlexSeal, this is a sealant that will extend the life of your doormat!

  6. Your creativity!

Instructions:

  1. Place stencils on your doormat, or freehand your design.

  2. Apply paint to the design, using the paint brushes.

  3. Once paint has dried, spray with sealant and let that dry as well

That’s it! Easy peasy. The most difficult part of this project is choosing your design. This DIY is a fantastic way of letting your creative side shine. This craft is a great gift to give as well, as it is completely customizable. If you choose to do this project, send us a photo of your finished product!
