Equipment

  • scissors
  • Painters Tape
  • Flat Edge
  • Rae Dunn Font

Materials

  • 1 plain ribbed doormat
  • 1 pair Witch's Legs
  • 1 set White Chalk Pens
  • 1 box White Chalk

Instructions

  • Print out your desired wording with your favorite font (bold print is best) onto regular printer paper. 
  • Flip over your print out and begin going over the letters filling them in using your regular white chalk.  
  • Flip back over your print out and place onto your doormat into desired position and secure with painters tape.
  • Go back over your letters with a flat edged tool, I used an old mechanical pencil without an eraser.  Just firmly rub over the letters one at a time, trying to be sure to keep your paper in its original position.
  • Remove your paper and the lettering should be left behind by the chalk.  Go back over your design with your favorite chalk markers until your desired result is reached.
  • Add witch's legs and any other Halloween decorations to your mat.
