Love this! I have some burlap I picked up at the little thrift shop I volunteer at, every week, for the last 6yrs (yes, I have quite a junk collection! Lol!). It was supposed to be for laying over your garden beds, or potted plants, so it is actually a LONG thick strip, that, if used for pots, it has velcro on the ends, so u can stick it together around the pots. And, it came w jute string, I think to tie the top & bottom, so if it got cold, or colder, u could use to close the tops, as well. I WAS going to somehow make a burlap bag with it, but the velcro is kind of bulky, so it looked funny, and it's been sitting in my sewing scrap pile for a while now. I think, cut in half, it'll make a perfect runner, or maybe even two, I'm not sure, I'll have to measure the width!
ReplyDeleteBut, I love this idea of actually painting, with a stencil, right onto the burlap!! I always see people use their printer to print onto the burlap, but I never had luck w that, and the weave is a little wider on my piece, than on regular burlap, so that wasn't even an option. This, though, I'm like, OMG why didn't I ever think of this?! Lol, but, that's why YOUR the blogger, & I'm the.. Collector of junk! Lol! Thanks again!
Thank you for the comment, burlap is very simple to stencil give it a try the runner is 10 in wide and 51 inches long , amd I too am a collector my junk is way too many dishes and textiles cant get enough of that! lucky for me they are easy to hide lol so I have entered you into the giveaway, thank you for visiting
DeleteOhh, and I def wanted to enter, lol, I'm not sure if I was supposed to put that... I hit send, bc someone kept calling my phone while I was trying to post my last comment, and I was almost done, and usually, when I get a call, it deletes my comments unless I get to publish it before they call... And, I knew he'd call back within 3 minutes... So I sent quickly, and hadn't said I did want to enter! =) Thanks again!
