Burlap Wreath

I may have a slight obsession with burlap. If you look up burlap on pinterest the possibilities are endless! I had a ton left over from doing my kitchen curtains (see post below) so i decided i needed a wreath. I love it! It was soooo easy!!

Instructions-

You will need a Styrofoam wreath,

a TON of ball pin ( i used my ball sewing pins)

a TON 4in x 4in burlap squares. 1 1/4 -1 1/2 yds. burlap,I made a triangle with the squares then folded the other ends towards the center to make a "bubble" like appearance - then I pinned into the wreath hiding the pins.

So easy but so cute!!

DIY-Pot holder/dish towels

Do your kids always pull the dish towel's down off your stove like mine do? Its actually one of my many pet-peeves. I mean it REALLY drives me bonkers!! This summer my Aunt was visiting my Mom and she brought these pot holder/dish towels with a button and I about died. I asked my Mom if i could borrow hers so I could copy and make some for myself! They were pretty easy and I loved how they turned out (Please note the thicker the towel the harder they are to make- I broke 4 sewing needles in the process of making 3 sets). I also think they make a fun wedding shower gift (right Abbie??)

Supplies you need

Dish towels (thinner the better)

Pot holder with a hook for hanging ( i ended up taking my seem out of the hook and making it bigger so i could use bigger buttons)

buttons

Sewing machine
