{ Burlap & Lace }

I was in love with the vintage chic rag banner I made for my daughters birthday, so I wanted to make something similar we could enjoy more often! What better than burlap, lace and linen? The perfect neutral, perfect for anytime combo!


Start by cutting all your fabric into strips. I don't measure, I just eye it! I used jute as the base of the banner, jute is strong and durable. Play around with a design, create a loop with the fabric and pull through. Continue this until completed. And there you have it! An affordable, beautiful banner :)

  7. Your banner is sooo lovely, I love the combo of burlap and lace, the burlap keeping the lace from being too precious, and the lace keeping the burlap from being too rustic. Perfect. ♥♥♥ Lorraine
