Personalize Your Entryway

There is nothing more inviting to your guests than a traditional "Welcome" mat in your doorway. However, just because something is traditional, doesn't mean it has to be boring or uninspired. If you are looking to add that personal touch to your front porch, look no further than a wood door mat.
Wood door mats offer several advantages over the traditional, scratchy door mat. First and foremost, wood is smooth and clean, whereas door mats made from other materials tend to be scratchy and accumulate mud and dirt. Wood door mats are easy to clean, and they also dry much more quickly. Another advantage of choosing wood is that they are specially designed to remove dirt from shoes without soiling the door mat itself. Most wooden door mats have a special compartment beneath the top of the mat in which dirt will fall.
Another great perk of a wood mat is that they are so easy to personalize. Most companies will offer to sand carve whatever words you want onto your mat. They also will also usually offer a gallery from images which you can choose to have carved on the mat. Or, if you are the more creative type, buy a plain wood mat and use a wood-burning kit to add whatever designs you would like to your door mat.
