The inspiration for this fall doormat is the humble pumpkin, one of the most popular symbols of this season. You can make this by sketching your pumpkin silhouette on the back of a rectangular doormat and then cutting off the excess pieces around the edges. Pick an orange mat to start with to make this project easier. You’re also going to need some black paint for the outline. For more information head over to themerrythought.

For this spooky doormat you don’t even need a stencil. You can sketch the vampire teeth directly on the mat using a sharpie or perhaps some chalk. Then fill in the design with some white acrylic paint and center the “velcome” underneath. Let the paint dry and that’s pretty much it. You can also give the mat a rounded shape before you start painting it. Check out the tutorial on creativelive for details.
