Burlap Creations

A few weeks ago I ordered some old burlap coffee bean sacks from a coffee shop in California. Paradise Roasters has a blog. They sent me 10 bags for FREE, I just had to pay the shipping, which was less than $15. So I was thinking of what to make with these fun bags, and this was the first of my little projects using the burlap.

The stool before, plain and boring.



The stool after, interesting, unique!



All it took was a little patience, a staple gun, and a helping hand!



It was very simple, but I absolutely love it! I need a sewing machine now, so I can make a burlap grocery bag!
