DIY burlap coasters, giveaway, and NEWBIE party started!
Hope ya'll are not tired of my burlap projects.
I swear these sacks I have are never ending. I love em' and can't come up with enough projects for them. Let me show you real quick what I have done so far...
This was my first project...
Then from there I made my lampshade from left over scraps...
Mod podged on.
Mod podged on.
Still some scaps left, so
I decided to mod podge and burlap the top of this mini trunk..
I still have scraps left so today I decided just one more small project....
I had these coaster for sometime now. They never were my style.
Today I used some cork board to cover the top..
I hot glued the cork on top of the original coaster.
I then cut the squares to size and mod podged the burlap on the cork.
How easy was that?
They now sit on our coffee table and if in need of a coaster...
WHA LA!
I have two bags left that I would love for one of my followers/friends to have.
If you are interested just leave me a comment and I will throw your name in the hat.
Awesome lettering in a nice shade of blue, and the other rice bag is blue with a pretty shade of green.
that is my favorite one actually.
As you can see these bags are quite large, and the possibilities are endless.
Hope I inspired some of your creative juices.
NOW onto the newbie party.

Count me in for this one Debbie.
Put my name into your hat, please! And thanks for the opportunity! Your lamp is amazing & the sky is the limit with these bags. Oh , I can think of about a dozen things I would cover with one. (I can't wait- I hope I win!)
Thanks again!

Just linked up to your Newbie party! What great ideas for the sacks! I especially love the coasters. Please enter me in the giveaway.
You have so many easy and simple ideas. They turned out beautiful, and I love the lamp shade and the coasters
Great coasters! That was a super idea. I really love how you used every last piece of the burlap bags...no waste.
I love the coasters! I have made burlap coasters before but I had not thought about cork. Hmm....
Nice job!

Hi Debbie- I have just joined in the fun and now following. Thanks for hosting- I love this idea that links people in similar stages of their blog. Lynda
That rice bag is gorgeous! The colors are great and I would LOVE to have my name put in the hat for a chance to win!! I just scored two huge coffee bags and am throwing around a couple of ideas of what I should do with them. Love all the things you've been making with your burlap. Curious, are the stools scratchy to sit on or does washing make it softer? I'm worried the burlap will fall apart when I wash it. Does it?
Love this idea! I had passed up on a couple of vintage feed sacks at a yard sale this weekend, because they were ripped and I couldn't think of any projects for just little chunks. Leave it to you to have the perfect idea! Thanks for sharing.
Loving these cute burlap coasters, Debbie. I don't think I can ever get tired of burlap... so many creative uses! I like how you tied them up with a burlap tie. Love the hints of blue in the rice bags and the chance to win. Thanks for hosting this fun party for us each week and introducing us to so many new friends. I really appreciate it. Have a great week!~Poppy

LOVE this project! I have a bunch of burlap left from my curtains and I think I'll be making these!!
I have a blonde question for you.... You do not have the "follow" icon on your blog (and I'm almost positive your on Blogger). That is what I usually do to follow blogs. Is Google reader the same thing? Or different? I like to read them all in the same place :)
andrea@oasisaccents.com
Thanks Andrea for your interest in the bags, I threw your name in the hat.
I just found you and linked up for the first time! It's so wonderful of you to give us newbies such great exposure! Thank you!

I have something lined up for next Monday.
