Take one can of spray paint, one service-able but tired doormat and a warm day and what do you get?
To make a personalised door mat it really is as easy as 1, 2, 3. Here’s How to give your doormat a new look.
First, mark out your pattern on the doormat. I used Bin Stickers I bought at the 99p Store, and some packing tape. Take the time to make sure everything is firmly stick down and all the lines are straight.
Second, cover with an even coat of spray paint in your choice of colour. I had black on hand. Leave to dry and then apply another good coat: some of the colour will fade as the mat absorbs it.
Third, peel off the tape once the paint is thoroughly dry and place on your front doorstep.
Totally in love!
And spray paint too – yippee!
That is quite simply fabulous! thanks so much for sharing on Craft Schooling Sunday!
Wow! Love this, please share it! Link it up with me on my Wow Us Wednesday, ok? Over at http://www.familyhomeandlife.com
I love how this looks. I actually have a blank doormat sitting in the trunk of my car waiting to be decorated, but with the joys of Seattle weather, it immediately started raining the second I bought the doormat and hasn’t stopped long enough for spraypaint to dry.
Looks awesome! I love it!
I love this idea! Whenever you can take an old item and give it new life like this, it is especially rewarding :). You should share this project at my on-going link party – http://rustic-crafts.com/?p=6820
