The Skinny Stripe MerMat is handwoven from reclaimed crab pot rope. Yours will come with its own unique name. (see below)
Just a skinny splash of color here and there to keep things joyful.
You choose the colors you'd like or we can choose for you. We can make this in any color you see here, or featured in any product anywhere on our website as long as we have it in stock. If you want us to choose for you, we are happy to provide pictures before we ship or deliver.
Some examples of this look are pictured. We have an abundance of rope in shades of aqua blues, blue/greens, grays, whites, and some oranges and yellows to highlight. In most cases we can duplicate any of these examples.
This beautiful MerMat will remind you of your favorite day at the beach every time you wipe the mud off your boots. It is sophisticated, solid and durable and will welcome you home for years to come.
The rope used to make this MerMat has beautifully distinctive characteristic marks from its time spent in the ocean. The rusty marks come from the crab fishing and rope storage process.
What is a MerMat?
A Durable, Handwoven, One-Of-A-Kind Doormat Made From Reclaimed Crab Pot Rope ... And Then Named! A MerMat is a sturdy Welcome Home Doormat made from rope that has spent much of its life underwater. It's therefore, half Mermaid and half doormat..it's a MerMat!
Why do you name the MerMats?
We honor the rope as a spirited being. It comes to us after already having had a full life of service hauling crab up out of the ocean. There is an alchemy that is happening with each mat I weave ... a piece of rope and a man becoming something new together. I am helping the rope extend its usefulness and the rope is helping me express the hidden artist that lives in my heart.
Made in Humboldt County, CA. Each MerMat is a Treasure of Personality and Hand-Crafted Happiness. We hope you will enjoy the way these friendly, one-of-a-kind Seaside Weavers MerMats welcome you home each day.
Thank you for supporting our business and our desire to support the local fishermen by giving them a sustainable alternative to the landfill, one crab rope MerMat at a time.

Care
Each MerMat takes between 150-200 feet of rope to make! The result is a rugged product that will stand up to a lifetime of muddy boots and dirty shoes. They are easy to care for. Simply shake or hose off as needed.
Safety
They are best placed on a non-slippery surface. These mats are NOT recommended on a polished surface as they will slide and create a safety issue unless you have a non-slip grippy carpet pad underneath.
