Burlap for Wedding Series- Part 1

Hi Guys!

As promised on Monday we start our Burlap Wedding inspiration blog post! The great thing about all of the idea's I'll be showing you over the next few weeks is that there definitely easy and last minute DIY wedding projects. They can even be last minute rustic touches that you can add. So even though you've got most of your planning done, we can still help you add the final touches to your special day. Or we can help you be the best maid of honour/bridesmaids a bride could have ;)

Let's start with  invitations. That rustic/natural look can start right from the get go with this Burlap Invitation Pouch or Pocket!


If you're having a exclusive intimate wedding you can easily use our Burlap Sheets to create this. If you're having quite a few guests Burlap by the Yard might be a better way to go. Just cut out a proportionate size rectangle, fold it in half, and either stitch or glue the ends depending on what kind of finished look you want.


Continue with the rustic/natural look with your favour bags or wedding party gift packaging! This way your guests are really taking something back with them from your wedding. Plus how thoughtful are you for giving them something that can be reused in any way they want! The bonus thing with our Burlap Pouches (which will soon be available for purchase) is that the plain canvas let's you add your very own personal touch.



I already gave you a sneak peek of what the next Burlap project can be. Can you guess? You're right, or maybe slightly off, depending on what answer you were screaming at the screen lol. The Menu! One of the most important part of your wedding and what some of your guest (if not all) are looking forward too. Burlap doesn't have to give off a rustic look, it can also be very classy and it could be a great simple accent to your wedding and the tablescape. Even if you are not using burlap throughout your special day. 


Again, with the menu's depending on how many guest have RSVP'd you can use the Burlap by the Yard or the Burlap Sheets to create this look. 


All these ideas have one thing in common! These can be excellent accents or accessories to your wedding  even  if your special day doesn't consist of Burlap! You can easily incorporate the Burlap into your wedding with these ideas and it can add that little extra detail you've been having a hard time thinking of.

That's a wrap for today's post! Sorry to be leaving you with wanting more...but stay tuned next Wednesday on how you can use Burlap for tablescaping :)
