Who knew burlap was such a crafty medium? I love the candle wraps and the tree skirt. I have to say I was surprised to find the tree skirt craft. I never thought of making something so big from burlap. I love it! I am adding it to my project list for this year now.

I love making centerpieces out of burlap for Thanksgiving and Christmas! It's such a festive, rustic material - you basically can't go wrong no matter how you use it!

Burlap is a very durable material and very natural looking. I think crafting with burlap is a great idea.

I have not tried burlap, it never seemed a good idea-however, after seeing these ideas, I have a new respect for burlap-just great!

I have not used burlap in my crafting projects yet but after seeing the Poinsettia Burlap Wreath..I think I'm going to give it a shot..it's gorgeous (and I don't like poinsettias very much, so that's saying something)

I love the look of burlap wreaths. Since most of the time I put them on the outside of my door, I feel like the sturdiness of the burlap holds up more than other materials.
