Maine Lobster Rope Doormats – My Favorite Product So Far!

Hard to decide which color I like best!

Hard to decide which color I like best!

As the leading online retailer for doormats made out of recycled Maine float rope, a lot of people want to know which color combination is our favorite.  And, we have a really hard time answering. We’re the lucky folks who get to see all of the lobster rope doormats together in an array of bright and muted colors. Pardon the pun, but our warehouse is a sea of colors – blues, greens, yellows, purples, pinks, oranges, reds…all woven together in many different color combinations.

 

So, I usually don’t answer the question because it’s important for buyers to pick a color combination that will work for their home.

But, I will say that I’ve developed quite a leaning toward the blue/green combinations – especially Ocean Blue/Sea Glass Green.  Vibrant and attractive, some have more weathering than others, but they all just simply remind me of the Atlantic Ocean. Of the Maine seacoast. Blue. Green. Makes sense, right?

It’s our most popular color sold, so I know I’m in good company.

The other question I always hear is “Do the lobster rope doormats smell like the ocean?” And, the answer is that many do have a very subtle sea breeze scent – not overpowering or fishy at all. Rather, they smell like a warm summer day on the coast. They certainly jump start my scent memory – and I’m a child again back in Ogunquit, Maine or York Beach enjoying a hot, sandy, beachy, and totally relaxing time with my family. They make me crave for fried clams, lobsters, and steamers – even though most of the time I really don’t like seafood (shhh!)

I guess you can tell that I love this product. I do. Made from 100% recycled Maine float rope, the lobster rope doormat is a wonderful addition to the product mix for The New England Trading Company and we’ll keep selling them until the rope runs out!
