DIY Stamped Watermelon Doormat by Yourself

Usually,a doormat is quite necessary in your house if you do not want to let your doormat get dirty. Here I want to introduce the diy stamped watermelon doormat to you.


Supplies:

* a plain welcome mat
* a large, all-purpose sponge
* a detail paintbrush
* paint containers

Instructions:

1. Use the scissors to cut the all-purpose sponge into a watermelon shape. You'll need to cut two stamps — one to mimic the wedge shape of the watermelon’s pink core, and a second to represent the thin, curved green rind of the watermelon. After cutting the general shapes out, you may need to trim up the edges to ensure a crisp stamped shape.

2. Pour a large amount of paint onto a tray or plastic plate and dip your sponge into the paint. With the stamp's bottom surface covered with paint, bring it over to the mat and press down firmly in random places across the surface. You can stamp each shape twice to ensure full paint coverage.

3. As for the process, you can stamp the pink wedges first and then go back and top each shape with the smaller stamp loaded with green paint. Allow to dry for 20 minutes. Then grab the smaller detail brush and add tiny dots of black paint to the pink wedge to mimic watermelon seeds.

4. Allow the mat to sit overnight in a well-ventilated area to ensure that the paint has a chance to completely dry.

5. In order to protect the stamped watermelon design, you can add a final coat of clear, waterproof spray paint on top completes the piece.

OK, that's it! Come on! Make the personalized doormat by yourself.
