Burlap Upholstered Chairs

gunny sack upholstered chairs

I received these photo's from Ashley.  She wanted to upholster her chairs and wondered how to treat her fabric.

So I sent her some tips {downloadable right here} 

She then used the tips I have available and covered the result with clear vinyl to make them more durable.

{so nothing gets snagged on the fibers}

Chairs - Before

It is SOOO nice when people send me pictures of how their projects turn out.  

I LOVE her chairs!  They look adorable, and she says they hold up great.  Theses are the chairs they use every day...!!  Lucky girl!

Burlap Sack Upholstered Chair

Isn't it fabulous how she put the print on at an angle.....?

This is what Ashley said:

"Your tips on upholstering coffee sacs helped me turn my old boring chairs into amazing conversation pieces! I actually use them on a daily basis and the thin vinyl covering is still holding up."

She's so nice....

Purses Made Out Of Feed Sacks

It is just so wonderful to see a purse that is made out of a feed sack!
I love the "green" feel to it.I love the outdoor, rural feel of reusing an existing burlap sack.
I love the feel of living off the land and making due with what you have that a real potato sack purse gives.


I love the feel of farming and country living that you get when you think of the original purpose of the feed sack.
Purses made out of burlap sacks are just wonderful!
Purses made out of feed sacks make you feel good to be alive!

Isn't this bag so cute!
A real European Potato Sack-Bag.
Being from the Netherlands (that's in Europe...for those of you who didn't know... hahaha), I am quite envious. Wish I knew where to get such burlap bags!

I'll have to call my mama and see if she knows....
