Great idea. This would be a good homewarming gift too. Oh wait do they even have those anymore or did that go out in the 70s?

I love the idea of a DIY doormat..especially because it's something inexpensive and creative. I purchased a 4 Leaf Clover Doormat and plan on putting an "N" in the middle of it. So not only is it personalized but it has a cool background. The doormat was cheap! I got it at one click direct or go to http://bit.ly/cNlsp1.
