Burlap Sack Messenger Bag

Hello there!

Included is a picture of a messenger bag made by Graham, which he sent me after requesting the free potato sack preparation tips PDF file, which I offer free to anyone who asks....

This is What Graham told me about the bag:

"A few more details about it, it's11 1/2 inches tall by 12 inches wide.  The strap is made of a 42 inch strip of 3 inch wide burlap with the ends folded in to make a strap that's 1 1/2 inches wide.  Funny story about the sack that I used for this.  I went into my local coffee roasters to try and buy a few sacks so that I could cut them up and use them for wrapping some of my outdoor plants, and they just gave me about 12 sacks.  Some were nicer than others, so I kept the nice, tighter weave ones for crafts."

Thanks for sharing, Graham!
I love seeing what people have made......!

Make a Wonderful Haute Potato Headboard

,Now this is the BEST, most creative Haute Potato headboard I've ever seen!

Beauty and burlap combined at its best!
I love what the designers at C&C came up with for creative decorative use of Haute Potato burlap sacks!
They covered a headboard with them! This design just really POPS for me.
What wonderful contrast of the clean dark-colored wall and the crisp white sheets with the rugged and rustic burlap and print.
NICE WORK!!! This would definitely look very good in YOUR bedroom!!! Uh-huh!

Simple Uncomplicated Burlap as Upholstery Fabric

Burlap is quickly becoming a highly desired textured spotlight. I have been fascinated with genuine potato sacks for some years now and am thrilled to see how burlap is now being used as an upholstery fabric. It gives a simple, uncomplicated feel, perfect for contrasting with more classic pieces. It creates a relaxed yet refined look....
I think it just TERRIFIC!!! Looks good in any decor style!
