I definitely want to make a burlap wreath. I think I see a visit to Michaels in my near future.
I don't know how I feel about burlap. I like the rustic look of it very much, but it's sort of scratchy. It looks great in all these photos!
ReplyDeleteLaura- I love the looks of it as people use it in their decor...but I am so allergic to it that I start scratching just touching it....something in the fiber. I grew up handling it on the farm as all of our feed was delivered in those bags. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteThanks for the inspiration, Laura!!!
ReplyDeleteI JUST picked up 4 big burlap sacks at Habitat for Humanity store! $1 each, SCORE!!!
To make my burlap wreath, I used leftover from an upholstery job my fried and I did.
She bought the burlap for $10 a yard.
Also, get a coupon from Michaels, so the ring doesn't cost you $7 like mine did.
I loved your ideas!
That is burlap love, that's what that is:) Love it! Happy Easter:)

The little wreath is sweet! but I don't think I would ever decorate with it. It's really in now and a lot of people love it. The photos are very lovely! Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteI love the natural color and texture of burlap!
ReplyDeleteFun. I do love that natural look. I love the pillow with the eye chart. :-)
ReplyDeleteThe only one I would possibly not do is the one for the bed. At least for the pillows and the cover...bedskirt, definitely! Hope to see your wreath soon!
ReplyDeleteI have been doing some work with burlap lately too, if you run it through the laundry on heavy duty a few times and throw it in the dryer it helps quite a bit! Be prepared to clean out the lint traps. Thanks for even more burlap inspiration
ReplyDeleteI would love to make one of the banners but do you think burlap is hard to work with? I haven't tried yet! Enjoy your holiday weekend! ♥
ReplyDeleteI seem to be allergic or something to burlap. Makes me sneeze!

I love burlap too. Thanks for sharing some great inspiration!
ReplyDeleteA feel like burlap is the new silk :) I love how we walk up and down the curve of development. After complexity, comes simplicity...
ReplyDeleteLove burlap for that farmhouse look and feel. Wishing you a Happy Easter!
ReplyDeleteLaura, every time I visit your blog I am dazzled by your "finds"! I just love the ottoman and eye chart throw pillow. And the burlap skirt in the laundry room had me wishing I needed a skirt somewhere in my house! Guess I need to step away from the stove more often - I didn't even know there was a burlap craze!
ReplyDeleteYou made that pillow? wow that looks great like something in one of those high end shops. Good job.
ReplyDeleteI love the look of the burlap, but most burlap I've ever known had an odor to it that I didn't like! Maybe the newer burlap doesn't? Not sure I'd want it as a bed covering. Love your pillow, that is very nice!
ReplyDeleteI love all the burlap especially that wreath. I love burlap I think it adds such nice texture.
ReplyDeleteLove the burlap. but don't like the dust it leaves behind in the sewing machine. Hope you are getting your supplies from Michaels lined up!

I've never seen burlap look so cool! Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteHi Laura!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE all of the images that you have collected to inspire us!
I have been on this whole washed burlap kick since Fall. If you take a few yards to the laundry mat and use fabric softener, it helps rid the odor. I learned about laundered burlap from Andrea at The French Basketeer and Donna at A Life Reclaimed.
Your Etsy shop is wonderful! That vintage copper pan...it's patina perfect!
Thank you for visiting 34th street!
I wish the best of blessings to you and your family at this Easter time.
