Bitten by the Burlap Bug

I know I'm a little late to jump on the burlap train, but I love it!  It all started with this little chair that I did for my sister.  I happened to have some leftover and thought it would go great with a bench I had in my garage.  The bench itself was a little beat up, but I think that just gives it character.  This also meant I couldn't go to fancy with my fabric, so burlap was perfect.

before...

and after!

I love this ruffled trim from Hobby Lobby ($1.20 a yard with coupon)

I found this cool old book at an Estate sale last Sunday.  I love the color of it and it's actually an old cookbook, so I may try some of the recipes.  It was my first estate sale and I thoroughly enjoyed it.  We found lots of great deals!

This item is also for sale in my new shop!
