Personalized Door Mats

I've had a busy week making personalized door mats.   The process is done via sublimation.



Supplies:
Blank door mat :  mine was purchased at Home Depot
Sublimation :  printer, ink and heat press
Design :  Silhouette Design software

1.  First purchase the blank door mat  - mine were found at Home Depot


2.  Next decide what design you want on your door mat.   I used Silhouette software.   The split frame image was purchased from the Silhouette store.

3.  Print on sublimate transfer paper (using sublimation printer with ink).   Printed on 11" x 17" sublimation transfer paper.

4.   Press at 400 degrees for 60 seconds using pressure of 2-3.   I use heat tape to hold the paper to the mat while pressing. 




Remove transfer paper and enjoy. 

These would make great house warming gifts.
