Unwelcome Mat

Scare off little ghosts and goblins with a gothic “unwelcome” mat

Unwelcome Mat

 

This extra long “unwelcome” doormat is the perfect Halloween decoration for scaring off ghosts and goblins.

Step 1: Print out the “unwelcome” pattern (pdf). Trace letters on poster board.

Step 2: Using a craft knife, cut out the letters to create a stencil.

Step 3: Use painter’s tape to mask off a 1-inch border around the edge of the mat. Use black spray paint to create a border. Let dry.

Step 4: Tape the “unwelcome” stencil to center of mat with painter's tape. Use black spray paint to fill in letters. Let dry.

Step 5: Use painter’s tape to mask off a 1/2-inch decorative rule above and below “unwelcome letters.” Let dry.
