I have the opposite problem -- it's -20C (I'm not sure what that is in Farenheit, but it's cold!), and one dad stands outside the door, with the door open, while his daughter gets ready to go. She takes at least 10 - 15 minutes. Argh! For him it may be a cultural thing, but still -- it's cold out!

For those who do actually come in and shut the door, I have a clear plastic runner over my carpet. My carpet still shows through, so it's not as visually obvious as an area rug, but it still does the job. Perhaps something similar would help?
