\"Make\"\"If you’re a Tolkien fan (or even if you’re not) you’ll love this custom door mat that you can make using our free stencil below.\u00a0 I had first decided to use our technique from our post Making Stencils from Contact Paper.<\/a>\u00a0 But in the end I was running behind and I cheated and used my Silhouette cutter.We have the stencil download in both formats.<\/p>\n

Every year we try to do a post or two during Tolkien week which is the week that Bilbo and Frodo’s birthday, September 22nd, falls on. The Hobbit was the first real novel I read as a teen and I still have my original copy from way back then.\u00a0 I read it to my kids and Roy as a family when they were still at home. You can of course make any design you like to put on your rug. But if you are indeed a lover of all things Hobbity make sure to check out our other posts under Fantasy\/Sci-fi<\/a> category. You’ll find things like a DIY Lord of the Rings Art Wood Rack<\/a> and Easy Tiny Clay Hobbit Door (& Gandalf)<\/a>. You’ll also find a Lembas Bread Recipe<\/a> along with a mallorn leaf template to wrap it in.<\/p>\n
