30 Minute DIY Outdoor Love Mat

Looking for a way to change up your entryway for the holidays? This DIY Love Mat is SO easy to put together in less than 30 minutes! All you need are a few items and about 30 minutes to get started! Living in NV our outdoor mats get pretty yucky quickly with all of the rain, wind, leaves and sometimes snow. I LOVE to change them out for each season or holiday to give our front entryway a fresh look, but it can be quite pricey. I found that making my own allows me to not only save money (depending on where you purchase the mats from) but to customize my own! Super FUN!

Supplies for DIY Love Mat

You need a plain outdoor mat, Flex and Seal spray paint in whatever color you plan on using, and large holiday stencils. I attached links above as examples, but Amazon isn’t the only place to purchase these products. I found a great deal at Hobby Lobby one afternoon for $10!

Home Depot sells outdoor mats as well as other craft stores. You can also purchase a variety of Flex and Seal at Home Depot or Walmart. It’s fun to experiment with different colors for pops of color OR change up the color of your mat and try to work with black mats.

How to DIY Love Mat

Once you gather your supplies find a dry outdoor space to lay your mat, place your stencil in the middle (or wherever you would like your stencil to show up). I like to add rags around the outside edge of my stencils so the spray from my flex spray doesn’t splatter onto parts of the mat that I don’t want it to be splattered on! Place the paint can close to the stencil and begin spraying. Carefully pull the stencil off by lifting it in an upward motion. You don’t want to slide off the stencil because the paint could smear.

On this particular floor mat I used the heart in the middle of the word love to make more hearts around the mat. I covered up the rest of the word “love” as I sprayed. Check out my final product!
