My sister-in-law picked up a fabulous old coffee sack for me one day and I couldn't
wait make a table runner with it!!!!
I just love the combination of burlap and ruffles (opposites attract!).
An old sheet from the thrift store (washed and bleached of course!) makes the perfect weighted material for this ruffle edge.
Happy day!

Lovely burlap table topper. I think adding ruffles is just what burlap needs to look gorgeous.

I love what bloggers are making out of coffee sacks. (in case you didn't know, I heart coffee) I saw some purses and shopping bags on Etsy that were fabulous. Ruffles are huge right now, too. On everything from home dec to clothing. I would love anything made out of coffee sack or ruffles.
ReplyDelete**PEACE**

ReplyDeleteThis is just so neat, I love the edging.
ReplyDeleteSuch a clever idea never thought of doing this. Thanks for sharing. http://lafeshiddentreasures.blogspot.com/
