Huan ying means welcome in Mandarin, and now it means welcome at your front door too. Some houses make people guess if they're wanted. Yours won't.

Get it as a coir outdoor mat if your entryway stays covered — that sustainable eco friendly texture holds up for years out of direct sun and rain, and it comes in 8 sizes, so it actually fits your door instead of just approximating it. Need something that can take a real Tuesday, rain or shine? The all-weather fabric front mat with a recycled rubber non-slip backing version hoses off and holds its ground anywhere, covered or not. Either one makes a genuinely great housewarming gift — especially for the family that's been waiting for someone to finally put both languages on the same porch.

Buy it once, and it'll still be greeting people in two languages long after everyone else's welcome mat has faded to a suggestion. Not sure which size or material is right for your door? Ask Perogi, our chatbot assistant (a very good pug), or read How Do I Choose a Doormat?
