DoorMat Re-entry !

Aren't beautiful door mats so welcoming. I love those houses which showcase wonderful and interesting door mats. The owners might be unknown yet, those doormats attract our attention so much that we dont mind staring at the house and thinking of how artistic the people are, for a moment.

In hunt of a pretty bright door mat during a boring season, i ended up bringing home a sober colored door mat, which i didn't mind displaying because of its simplicity. After lying there for a while, it shouted for color. I am definitely not thinking of another one, so i bought some bright acrylic colors and painted it. There it is!! My neighbors were surprised as they see this beautiful piece greeting them, every morning. I used... My current door mat, An old tooth brush to clean the mat (I Pressure Washed it under a shower. As it is made of recycled tires, it dried quickly. ( you can brush the surface clean if washing and drying is not easy). Acrylic or Oil colors of your choice. Painting brushes of suitable size. Old papers for underlay.
