So instead of Turkey Day pics., I thought I'd share some pictures of my ever-present, but recently "over-the-top" burlap obsession. This is what a .50 cent roll of burlap and many, many yards of red and white clearance ribbon can do in my house this time of year!
Line the hanging towel crate in the guest room...
Cover that terrible foil on poinsetta #1...
Create a very simple tree skirt for the manly mini-tree in the dining room...
Cover the terrible foil on poinsetta #2 and below a distant pic. of #1... Why? Dunno!
What are you doing these days with burlap?

I am perhaps the biggest burlap fan out there! I love it and use it for all sorts of things - curtains, table cloths, decorations... I may have to do a burlap love post soon too!
Fun ideas for burlap. I never would have thought to do that. Very creative. Hope you are feeling better.

Cute ideas for sure...
gives it a warm look too
I agree, the foil is way to shiny however I like hammered tin, so maybe wrinkling the foil works for you?
I say this because if it's in a window, the reflection of light works well at night.
Love the burlap too!
Some things I did with burlap:
made pillows for my sunroom, definently for look not feel!
In college I had to make piece of fashion, so I made a cute little purse with bamboo handles!
Hope your feeling better!!

Love the burlap. The tree skirt is my favorite!

Well, I'm not doing anything with burlap right now, but you've inspired me to! I love burlap and actually have some pieces I should pull out. Think I'll do just that first chance I get.
Thanks for stopping by my blog. It's nice to meet you!
A few years ago I used burlap as drapes in my living room. They really looked great. Also, my friend used burlap to cover one of those cheap round decorator tables and it looked just stunning!
