Happy Friday!!Introducing a great new product here at the Hingham Gift Company, "Downeast Doormats" by the Maine Float Rope Company. These stylish doormats are actually recycled/repurposed lobster trap rope, which is great because...
-this rope was harmful to whales so it is no longer allowed
-lobstermen are required to replace this rope with more expensive sink-rope, so a government funded program pays Maine lobstermen for their turned-in float-rope and helps offset their financial burden
-instead of going into landfills, the rope is hand-woven into stylish, colorful doormats that look great outside of the beautiful houses on the South Shore.
Enjoy the weekend :)
