Is your family tracking muddy shoes and paws all over your house? A few years ago I discovered a floor mat that is perfect for wood floors. Chilewich woven vinyl mats, available in a multitude of colors, protect the finish on wood floors. What’s so neat about these, and perfect for these muddy days, is the mats wash out in the sink! The mats don’t need any drying time, though you could hang them up to dry if you wanted. What’s more, Chilewich mats can be custom-sized to fit your flooring needs. If you are interested in learning more about these mats, you can view Chilewich website, or visit your local Crate and Barrel which carries standard sizes in stock. Most mats start at $50 making this a great value for an often overlooked area of your house.
Colorado Homes often have what is commonly here referred to as a "mud room". Not that we have a lot of rain (unless it is May 2011) but more symbolic of the fact that people who live here tend to love the outdoors and enjoy various activities year round. They also love their homes and having a place that you can come in and unload your "outdoor gear" is helpful in keeping your home clean while not losing out on all the outdoor fun as well.
