HOWTO make a river-rock doormat

By at 1:18 pm Thursday, Nov 3

Here's a set of simple instructions for making this striking doormat crafted from smooth river stones:
First, I poured out all the rock on the back patio and rinsed them off and let them dry for a day.

Second, I took a roll of that rubber shelf liner stuff and cut it to the size that I wanted.

Third, I started scavenging through all the rocks to find ones that fit together in a cool pattern. It took a while, but I got them all situated. We bought two bags just so that we could find all the 'perfect' rocks.
