Burlap - not just for potatoes anymore!!

I am in love with burlap. And now there are so many colors that anything can look great when made from burlap! I still love the natural color the best, but I have used other colors and wanted to show you some of my latest creations.


These wine bags are made of burlap in potato sack and the labels are from natural burlap.




As you can see, I found this beautiful raspberry color burlap and used it for a pillow.




I used natural burlap for this pillow. There are different quality burlap out there too. You need to buy the best quality for the project you are working on or else you will be sorry. The looser weaves will shift on you if you are doing any seaming at all. Just experiment and have fun!!

    These are all just adorable. Great job.
    I love burlap, too, until you have to wash it. :)
