How to resize a jute rug into the perfect doormat

DIY resized jute rug – custom fit for any entryway

Improve the look of your home with a simple but impactful project: resizing a jute rug to perfectly fit your space! Finding a doormat or entry rug in just the right size can be tricky, especially for those odd little entryways. This clever tutorial from Driven by Decor shows you how to customize a standard jute rug into the perfect fit. The process isn’t super quick, but it’s easy and budget-friendly, and the results are well worth it.

The key is starting with a natural fiber, handwoven jute rug with fringed ends. The width remains the same, but you can trim the length to suit your needs – just be sure to shorten from both fringed sides so the final look stays balanced. In no time, you’ll have a custom jute rug that feels designer-made without the designer price tag.
