Flash Post: Give ‘Em The Boot
What It Is: A winter shoe & boot mat with handy outlines to know where to place your most beloved pairs while they’re drying off. That’s not all though. It also happens to be made from recycled wiper / scraper blades. And it’s actually made by Quebec design firm TOMA. A cute addition to your mud room, front door, or small spaces like apartment or condo entryways.
Who It’s For: Your hyper-organized sister that’s dealing with dorm life for the first time: maximize space and minimize silt & water in your rug! Your downtown loft-living brother, to give his entryway a little style. Your just-bought-a-new-place girlfriend, as a funky housewarming choice.
What It Costs: $45 (although there are other options for slightly less here & here)
Where It’s At: MADE – a hyper-cool Canadian-made design store.

Malto cool Brittany! Wish I could see the full pattern underneath those pair of boots though! Great house warming gift for sure. Going to head on over to Toma….on another note, sure hope I win the lottery with all the cool gift ideas you are presenting and I’m going for 🙂
I love this mat. Cool
That’s great, I could use this mat.
So fun!
this would be great for my back entrance, thanks
I like it!! I’d love to have something like this, but my kids are so messy and shoes would never end up on it, lol. Would be great gift for my mother!
I love that it’s made locally and from recycled material.
I think this is a great idea to use recycled materials to create a practical and useful product.
I love the recycled material, and but I do like the other patterns better
This is super duper neato!
I love that it’s made from recycled wiper blades…this would come in handy for our family 🙂
I really like the recycled wiper blades and would be thrilled if my son would place his shoes neatly on the mat! Hah! #CGG
I like it, might keep the kids from throwing their boots everywhere.
Find Of The Month: Rodial bonus entry #2: I think it’s a great gift idea for a new homeowner & the fact that it’s made from recycled wiper/scraper blades & is made in Canada is another selling point. [like the boots too!]
