inlaid into the mats/rugs
Explanation:
I think you are right. From what I can gather, the words "Hello", "Ciao", "Come in" and "Good Day" are inlaid into these creative welcome mats, recently developed by the carpet company and on display at a trade fair. You can see the carpet inlay process on the video.
