OP please come back and let us know where you get it from. Love it

Thanks!

I will need to check DH approves too. He won't mind the mat as such, but I better make sure he likes the design too I suppose.

I find mat quality not what is was (old gimmer) but as this is for such a short time (I won't actually start using it until 1st December) I suppose that doesn't matter much.

As I said, I have no ideas where these mats came from (all different places). The black one I just checked - Walmart apparently! - so that's out as I am in UK Smile

I had a Christmas one at my old house. Kept it out all year cause I'm a slob Blush can't remember where it came from but it was a UK shop, probably a supermarket or maybe Dunelm or similar.

Try Amazon op?

I thought this was about a reverse domestic abuse issue

I am currently coveting this, but I find coir doormats shed something awful 🤨

I have the solution to your wreath hanging problems! My neighbour has just put up a beautiful wreath hanging from one of those self adhesive hooks.

Do it op, I have a Christmas doormat and love getting it out on 1st December every year. Think I got mine off groupon

SecretLimonadeDrinker · 09/10/2018 16:27

@VeryFurryXmass dunelm sold Christmas doormats last year and they sold out fast! I'm going to get one this year!

MrsFezziwig · 09/10/2018 16:28

This would be my preferred option.

Thanks for this. Will try it. I have a North-facing front door and we live near the coast. The wreath will take a real battering Grin

My ex-MIL has a Christmas doormat that plays Christmas tunes when you stand on it!!

We used to step over it on purpose! Right, off to name change as I know one of her friends is on here & has grassed me up before!!!

BlankTimes · 09/10/2018 16:30

I have a glass door so cannot attach a wreath

If it's a double glazed UPVC these won't work, but if it's a wood door there may be a solution, Google for over door wreath hook or over door wreath hanger.

The only thing is you'll need to fix the wreath securely or someone could just lift the wreath off.

I use them indoors for wreaths of dried natural festive things and bells.

A few years ago I saw a doormat like this, in London, but at the home of a lovely Irish family!

I loop a piece of strong yarn around my wreath so it's doubled up, pass the yarn over the top of the door and tie to either a nail in the inside of the door or around the door handle for a glass door. We've moved a lot and it's worked at every house so far. If you're careful about yarn colour or use that clear fishing line you can't even see it.

Love the first door mat, it's awesome.

LatinForTelly · 09/10/2018 16:37

That ACDC one is brilliant!

AdoraBell · 09/10/2018 16:39

I want a Darth Vader one, it says Welcome To The Dark Side.

hamabr86 · 09/10/2018 16:42

Haha go for it, it bought Christmas bedding for my Stepdaughters beds in July. DP thought I had gone mad but I didn't have Christmas growing up so I'm now going full tilt at it lol.

If you like it who does it hurt?

Totally! I have Christmas bedding. Was fun choosing it.
