Burlap Wall Art

While strollin' through the aisles of Peavy Mart, I came across some old Brazillian coffee bean burlap sacks. I figured at some point, my creative juices would start flowing for a new burlap project so i picked a few up.

After starring at them for a couple days trying to decide what to do with my burlap sacks, I decided to practice my painting skills. With some fabric paint and a little creativity, I made some great new wall art.




I cut the burlap sack in half so I was painting on one layer. After finishing my paintings, I wrapped the burlap around a wooden frame. With a few nails to hold the burlap in place, my wall art was complete! Easy Peasy!

Here's another one I've been working on!


Hope you enjoy!
