Let’s start 2014 with one of the easiest projects ever – a painted doormat! I literally made this at the kitchen table while my kids were eating breakfast one morning. It’s just a little thing, but it makes a big statement on your porch.
Start with gathering your supplies. You’ll need some latex paint (I used some of what was leftover from my kids’ playroom), a paint brush, masking tape and newspaper to protect your painting surface. You could probably also use acrylic craft paint, but latex house paint is thicker and will cover your rug more quickly.
