Cheap and best diy :)

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+priyadarshani dhyani thank you! I love a budget DIY!! Glad you enjoyed the video

[@KatieQuintana]

So much cheaper than the mats I usually buy and I'm sure it will last just as long! I'm going to have to go see what the Dollar Tree near me has available.

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Katie Quintana me too! I was finding similar mats on Amazon for $80... I’m excited to see how it weathers this season

[@PaigeMcDivitt]

Wow. That's awesome. Such a cheap and cute idea!!!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Paige McDivitt thanks!! It’s still holding up great! Hooray!

[@MomOfBoysNOLA]

Glad you were able to get the paint off the wood floors. Yikes! Super cute and cheap DIY!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+MomOfBoys NOLA thanks! My husband totally would have killed me!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+MomOfBoys NOLA yes my husband would have killed me 😬

[@FaithMatini]

It turned out so great! I love DIYs and this was so inexpensive and simple yet it looked so elegant! I love white and black! 🙌🏾🙌🏾

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Faith Matini thank you! It was so fun to make. I was looking at$80 rugs and I’m so glad I found a cheap alternative!

[@wendiandsam389]

Her DIYs are always awesome

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Thanks for watching ♥️xoxo

[@CnMWardwell]

I love this idea Soooo much!! New fan! Thank you!!

[@ThePlattBrats]

This was creative and different, kind of got a color block thing going on. It looks good! Great job explaining.

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+The Platt Brats thank you, I was searching for one on Amazon for a few months and they were SO EXPENSIVE. This was a great alternative. Thanks for watching!

[@TheStephensonGrechFamily]

that was great looks so pretty

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+The Stephenson Grech Family thank you. It was really fun to make!

[@HarleenG]

I absolutely loved this DIY. I would definitely want to try this myself and 100% give you the credit. Watched it twice just because I was so intrigued. I will look for these mats next time I go to dollar tree.

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Harleen G you should totally make one!! That would be awesome! I’d love to see it!

[@TheProductiveMama]

This is amazing. I would have NEVER though if something like this. You DIYers are so brilliant 😂! I need to learn more! Love the finished product. It’s interesting that the hot glue is holding up outside. I had something hot glued and it literally melted off 😂. Granted that door gets so hot you can’t even touch it, so that’s probably why. Great video!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+The Productive Mama just did my one week update on Instagram!!! Still holding well! 💪🏼yay!

[@ContemporaryMama]

Wow that is really impressive that hot glue can hold that strong! I definitely didn’t think it could hold up to tugging that hard! Looks soooo impressive! I wonder if you could paint it orange-would make a perfect Halloween decoration!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Contemporary Mama ooooh... orange would be so fun! I have an orange harvest sign going up with the pumpkins this year. So excited for FALL!

[@TifanyJInspired]

Ok I’m new and obsessed with your page! So excited for all of your Diys!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+TifanyJ Inspired thanks, girl ♥️

[@TheGingerbreadMama]

So cool! I would have never thought of that!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+The Gingerbread Mama it was so exciting to see doormats at Dollar tree to try to make it happen. I love how it turned out. Thanks for watching ♥️

[@TheGingerbreadMama]

@@OrphaBeatrice I'm going hopefully today to see if my dollar tree has any. This got my wheels turning and I need some inexpensive treadmats for my stairs. I think an outdoor mat like that would give a good amount of traction so that my little girl who is just learning stairs doesn't fall down them like I've done sooo many times. Thanks for inspiring me!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Ooh! That’s a great idea!

[@OrlyC]

Wow this turned out amazing, I wish I could succeed at any of these DIY’s. Black and white truly makes it look elegant and not like a DIY. Thanks for sharing

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Thank you! It was really fun to make!

[@ItsAnitaP]

Hi! It's Anita from our FB group!

[@StevenandFrances]

I’m going to have to try this for myself! This would make a great house warming gift!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Steven and Frances yes definitely! It’s a fun cheap and easy diy! Thanks for watching

[@WonderWoMomTV]

I love this!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Thank you, it’s my favorite Dollar tree DIY!

[@PrettyAsAPeach96]

omg!! I go through these mats so quickly per season and holiday, I'd have so much more fun making them myself!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Becca Halm me too!!! Maybe a red and green or red and white for Christmas!!

[@NikkiIke]

Loved it omg so cute great for fall outside decor 🍁🍁

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+The Isaacson's I cannot wait for fall!!!

[@TwilaSchell]

Love how detailed your explanation was on how you did each step! This came out looking so lovely. 💕 Hot glue holds up great for sure!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Schell Lifestyle thank you! That’s such a kind compliment ♥️

[@lesmeyer318]

when you paint a material (fabric) next time mist the rug surface with a water mister then lay your paint on. Let dry, then do another coat.

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Great tip! Thanks for sharing!

[@Seriously-though]

Fantastic idea! Looking forward to your update! Thanks for the share!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Thank you for watching. I’m excited to see how it does outside for 3 months!!

[@lifewithrose2431]

Super cute! I love dollar tree DIY’s

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Thanks, girl. Me too! I love me some Dollar Tree.

[@rebeccaj]

Very impressive and such a bargain too! I have to admit when you said you were painting it, I did wonder how it would turn out...it looked fantastic! 😊

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Party of 6 I was scared too!.. I think the exterior paint was the key to success!

[@EricaLucasLoves]

Your description is detailed and the helpful tips you suggest along the way are so good. I was questioning the hot glue on a mat like that and you answered it with that tugging video!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Road Traveled Less thanks for watching. I’ve had it out now for 4 weeks and I’m updating my Instagram @OrphaBeatrice with how it’s weathering in the elements! So far, so good!

[@HomewithJessD]

I'm totally doing this!!! ❤️

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Home with Jess D yay! I hope you do! It’s holding up great after 1 week!

[@51carmello]

Really cool, simple, and cheap project!!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Thanks for watching♥️

[@daintyanddapper]

Fantastic job Kristin! I love the farmhouse layering look of the mats as well. Cant wait to try this out.

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Thanks! I love the layered look too. My husband totally doesn’t get it 😂

[@LeannesLife]

Love this so much!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Thank you! That’s such a nice compliment ♥️

[@bbydollt]

We did it with spray paint and it came out great although if iake a second I might do 2 cans for serious bright whiteness

[@OrphaBeatrice]

That sounds like a great idea!!

[@CluelessMamaD]

I’m so excited to do this and of course give you the credit! I’m in the middle of moving so behind on my DIY’s but so excited to do this.

[@OrphaBeatrice]

I can’t wait to see yours!!

[@CluelessMamaD]

💜💜

[@AceAndHisFamiliaVlogs]

Wow I love the rug, also i was worried when I saw hot glue but u did a great job!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Ace6/9 Vlogs & More thanks! It’s holding up great so far!

[@daintyanddapper]

Good tip about covering the whole mat with it being soaked through because I would literally get paint everywhere and be in big trouble lol

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+Life with Lilly me too! Lol... my husband would have killed me if I didn’t get it off the floor lol

[@daintyanddapper]

Hot glue is a powerful little adhesive and no joke!

[@ceciargueta9332]

I love your floral wreath. Is that a DIY?

[@OrphaBeatrice]

thank you, that was actually a spring clearance buy at Joann Fabrics!

[@lesmeyer318]

wetting the rug opens up the web to excepts the paint. Lightly sand when dry. Then coat again.

[@owinfrey6231]

Wish I knew this $100 and a million paint coats earlier. Always learning with DIY

[@kkabsher4601]

Spray paint. Seal it regardless for outside. Clever! If I make this, I’ll tag you on IG. You have a new subscriber = me.

[@OrphaBeatrice]

I’d love to see the spray paint version if you make it!!!

[@TheHomeSchoolHippie]

How long did it take you to paint the mat completely white? It seems like it would be a long process?

[@OrphaBeatrice]

+The HomeSchool Hippie it took about 30 minutes to paint the full mat white and then 24 hours to dry. I was SHOCKED how much paint it soaked up!

[@simplydiyhome]

I would have used what you did or spray paint!

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Life Made Simple I had someone send me a picture of their rug with spray paint and it looked SO GOOD!

[@kkabsher4601]

And I face west so hot glue won’t work. I’ll use a good outdoor adhesive.

[@OrphaBeatrice]

Oooh good point!
