DIY Doormat Hack | Bangin’ On A Budget

This post is about my DIY doormat hack that will help you create the cutest mat for a fraction of the cost of buying one!

Alright, ladies, I have a little hack for you!

I saw this really cute doormat that I absolutely fell in love with, but it cost $90, which was way out of my budget.

So, I decided to figure out a way to DIY it, and it turned out to be such a fun project to do with my girlfriends.

I'm going to walk you through the step-by-step process of how we did it, and how you can get the look on a bangin’ budget as well!

This post is all about DIY doormat hack.

SUPPLIES

Before ya get started, here are the materials you'll need:

• Plain doormat
• Letters (mine are from Michaels for around $5)
• Blue tape
• Black acrylic paint (I used a cheap one from Michaels)
• Foam brush
• Flexial Clear spray (or any clear spray that will protect your mat)

how-to

Step 1: Start with a plain doormat (I got mine from Target). 

Step 2: Next, I found some letters at Michaels. I used these to spell out my message "Hellooo" on the doormat.

Step 3: Using blue tape, I positioned the letters where I wanted them to go on the doormat.

Step 4: Then, I used a foam brush to pat down the black acrylic paint onto the doormat. I made sure to apply a thick enough layer of paint to make sure they'd show up well.

Step 5: Once the paint was dry, I removed the blue tape!

Step 6: Finally, I sprayed the doormat with Flex Seal spray (or any clear spray that will protect your mat) to keep it looking brand new all season long!

There you have it!

A super easy & affordable way to create your own custom doormat; bangin' on a budget style 😜.

It's such a great project to do with friends or family, and it's a fun way to add a personal touch to your home decor.
