Burlap has so many uses around here...

Burlap has been one of my most favorite fabrics to play around with. I started thinking how much burlap is actually around my house and used in my gifts! I thought would share with you all some of my best burlap uses over the past 8 months or so!

1. Burlap Monogram Frame

2. Patio Furniture Pillow

3. Ribbon on Christmas Gifts

4. Gift Wrap

Here are some pictures...

This last picture is my most recent use for burlap. I used this sack to cover a trash can that was a wedding shower gift. If you look closely, you will notice the cute little metal W. That is the last initial of the couple getting married-- I thought it added a nice personal touch!

Patio Udgrade!

This weekend I decided to add a little fun to our patio... I did not buy a single thing for this project! I used everything I had laying around the garage!

Here is a before of the patio...

Now, here is what I did to the pillows...

I printed some images on Microsoft Word, cut them out to use as a pattern. I printed a Dove and the letter 'A'.

I put the images over burlap and painted them on with a creamy white paint...

Next, I cut the burlap into small squares and used hot glue to attach the pieces of burlap onto the pillows that I already had!

So, the final pillow product cost $0!
