Handwoven from super tough polysteel rope, our weatherproof lobster rope mats and baskets are made to hold up to all 4 seasons and last for years - guaranteed.

But these outdoor mats and baskets are not just virtually indestructible - they also bring a friendly welcome to your front door.

Whether you're aiming for a fun seaside retreat or a coastal classic, timeless look, our carefully curated color combos will instantly elevate your entrance.


Here are some of our favorite pairings, featuring our Lobster Rope Doormats and Baskets, that will transform your front door into a warm and inviting space:

Navy, Teal, Silver Lobster Rope Doormat

Paired with: Navy with Teal Stripe and Navy with Silver Stripe baskets


Our Wicked Good Baskets were designed to complement our welcome mats, creating an unforgettable exterior that leaves a lasting impression on your guests. That’s why our Navy, Teal, and Silver outdoor mat perfectly matches both a navy with teal stripe and a navy with a silver stripe basket for a well-balanced look.

Feeling extra? Mix and match a regular sized Lobster Rope Basket with one of our oversized Navy and Silver baskets to create instant visual interest right at your door.

Navy with Dark Tan Stripe Front Door Mat

Paired with: Navy with Dark Tan Stripe basket and Dark Tan with Navy Stripe basket

 

The Navy with Dark Tan Stripe rope rug is a classic choice. It’s so easy to pair with our matching navy and dark tan stripe basket for a coordinated look, or why not switch it up and invert the colors with a dark tan and navy stripe basket? Whichever style you choose, this combo is a timeless look that stands out. 

Navy, Red, Light Tan Welcome Mat

Paired with: Navy with Red Stripe basket


If you love a vibrant pop of Nantucket red, our Navy, Red, Light Tan outside mat is your go-to choice! We've created the best matching partner: the navy Lobster Rope Basket with a charming red stripe. While they look great on their own, for a show-stopping entrance just pop in some red flowers, and watch your doorway transform instantly.

Green and Light Tan Double Weave Mat for Outdoors

Paired with: Dark Green with Light Tan Stripe basket


If you love a nature-inspired entrance, the Green and Light Tan Double Weave is an excellent choice. Pair with a green and light tan striped basket to create visual interest. The possibilities are endless when you mix and match our double weaves with stripes, and the results are absolutely stunning. Don't hesitate – go ahead and create your own unique pairing. 

Teal, Navy, Seafoam Lobster Rope Doormat

Paired with: Navy with Seafoam Stripe basket and Teal with Navy Stripe basket


If you want to bring all the teals and blues of the sea to your front door, here's your perfect three-part combo: start with one of our Teal, Navy, Seafoam exterior mats, and pair it with a matching Teal and Navy Stripe basket. Throw in an oversized Navy basket with a seafoam stripe for an extra beachy touch.

Solid Navy Nautical Rope Mat

Paired with: Solid Navy basket


Embrace the beauty of monochromatic style - with our solid Navy coastal doormat and basket, it's so easy to infuse vivid, bright greenery and flowers while switching it up with different door decor. It all effortlessly blends together, creating a cohesive look that's sure to impress your guests.

A few bonus tips about our Lobster Rope Doormats and Baskets:

Each nautical rope mat and basket is tightly handwoven, and its ends are seared together to create a permanent bond. This means even if you use it outdoors or indoors, it will not lose its shape or size, or fall apart in bad weather.


Our “Catch and Release” design means dirt is caught and passed through the doormat to be swept away later. Say goodbye to whacking your doormats to clean them! Welcome mats made from lobster rope never get bogged down with dirt and debris.


Lift and sweep away dirt. Then (this is the BEST part), just hose it down right at your front door. These nautical rope mats are the easiest outdoor doormats to clean - ever!

The Power of 3:
 

Incorporating Lobster Rope Baskets of different sizes adds visual interest to your entrance. The varying heights and dimensions create a layered look that instantly catches the eye.


A trio of different sized planters will always make a lasting impression - pair an oversized Lobster Rope Basket with two smaller baskets, and this will effortlessly capture your guests’ attention.


Mix and match our Lobster Rope Baskets to make your front door stand out and feel more welcoming - any visitor will love the effort you’ve put into creating this space.

Your choice of front door decor speaks a lot about your personality and the warmth you extend to your visitors. With our handwoven Lobster Rope Doormats and Baskets, we've made it easier than ever to create a warm, friendly, and welcoming entrance, as inspired by the power of the coast.
