~ Burlap Rag Wreath ~

" Close up of burlap texture...."
" Here it is......."

Ok, it may look neat but what a mess! Cutting pieces of burlap is not the hardest task, but trying to tie it around a wreath form sure is. I do not think there is any easy way to do it. I love burlap and the look and texture of it, but wow is it a disagreeable fabric. Falls apart and frays easily. Oh well, at least I can say I tried and accomplished one wreath-will I ever do it again? Never say never...

  5. I have a real passion for burlap right now. You have to be a very patient person to do such time consuming work, they look great though! Marcia
