Gone Bonkers For Burlap!

I've always loved fall for its beautiful colors and cooler temperatures, but this year I love it just a little more because of all the wonderful, colorful burlap that is available.  I am just amazed at all the things you can do with burlap; scrapbooks and cards and frames and home decor and on and on and on.  Plus, it is so easy to work with!  It gives dimension without bulking up projects, and it doesn't have to be symmetrical to look awesome.

I would be remiss, too, if I didn't mention the other great fabric that's showing up in crafting this fall - canvas!  It has just as many colors and it just as versatile.  In fact, when you use them together it's a great combination.

Here are a couple projects I've created using burlap and canvas.  Hope you enjoy them!
