Framed Burlap Sack ~



 So I needed something for this wall in my craft room:
So I grabbed this old frame and this burlap sack I recently picked up for $1.

and put them together (I might still embellish the top portion) - really for a dollar!

Added a few accessories and my little wall is looking much more complete.

The books and the the little guy (he also has a mate) I just recently picked up at Goodwill.



If you haven't already, be sure to check out my giveaway.
Have a great weekend!

    Very cool looking, Chelsea! I wonder if a fleur would look good at the top. I like how your flowers pick up the colors in the books in your vignette.

    That is one of my favorite things in a very long time. It's fabulous. I've been eying a colorful flower sack at a nearby thrift store. Now I know what I might do with it!

    Love! I want this :) I think I like the top blank. It just gives it a 'real" and interesting look, vs. store bought. But, I'm sure whatever you do will be fabulous! Now, I need to find me one.;)

    Very good idea! You have the neatest ideas for lowcost decorating items. I am so excited. I am going Goodwill hunting this afternoon. I have seen what so many have found and am hoping to snag some great finds. Wish me luck!

    Hello Chelsea~the framed burlap sack ties in beautifully with your whole setting. I must confess the *Seattle* script is my favorite. That's where my son and DIl live.

    Sweet wishes,
    Sara
