Burlap Curtain Ruffles and Burlap Mr. and Mrs. Pillows....

Well, lookie here!



See what Kait from Mrs. DIY and tennis guy came up with!

In an effort to save herself (and her hubby) some money,
she went to Hobby Lobby
and bought the material to make the pillows that run $118 at Ballard Designs....

Smart Girl!
And you know what?
I think hers are cuter.
Love the font she used.



And naturally she couldn't let the left-over burlap just sit there,
so she put it to good use by making ruffles for her bedroom curtains.  

Good job Kait!
Love it!

Coffee Sack Curtains~Valances

Have you checked out these burlap coffee sacks? They are so incredibly spectacular!
I love the way the vintage burlap coffee sacks are intact: not cut into at all. 
No cutting, no sewing....
Just some draping and tying.
Soooooo fun!  So simple!
So spectacular!
This is really a FABULOUS project. Very very nice!!!

Love 'um!

Burlap Curtains (Potato Sack Style)

Bonjour tout le monde....!!!
{That's French for "hello everyone...!!!!"}

 Congratulations to me....




I finally got some window coverings done in the laundry-room today...!!
YEEE~HAAA!!!! 
{Maybe I should say:  Congratulations to the laundry-room...!!!hahahaha..!!} 

This is cause for celebration, as we have lived in this house 
for eight~and~a~half years now...!!
Embarrassing....., I know.....  :-(
We never had any window coverings, curtains, blinds, or anything before today....!!!  :-)
{With only cows as neighbors, it did not seem like a great priority.... }
But now we do...!!!
 Aaahhhh....  {a sigh of relief....}

All I did was drape some potato sacks over a rake...
{yes, you heard right....}  NO SEWING!!!!!

I kinda folded them how I liked....
Tied some ropes around to keep things in place...
And VOILA...!!!!
{more French lingo... heeheehee}
They have a little bit of a print flaw or burlap "irregularity" here and there,
but not distracting at all......
In fact,.....I think it really adds.....


I kinda like 'um....
The potato sacks are from right here...
Aren't they cute.... And EASY...
