Decorating with Burlap Garland

I just listed my burlap garland on
Etsy. This has been one of my best sellers at the Antique Company Mall. I love all the fun ways to Ella~embellish everything from my booth to my mantel at home. I first started using this ribbon one Christmas on my tree for the nature theme I was doing that year. I later needed a way to cover the lights I had hanging at the top of my booth, so out came the burlap.

My recent display downstairs at the ACM for the McKinney Art Walk. I just tucked short pieces of ribbon here and there for a whimsical look.

Barbara's booth at the front of the ACM. She works the burlap in with a light airy theme.

This is my mantel at home. My house has an Old World feel, so I am working with a darker palette.
The shutters came from Romania and the framed ceiling tin has the original paint still intact and I bought at the Warrenton Antique Show.

I have rusty urns and birds (of course).

My daughter's boyfriend said my mantle tells a story of how the birds came along and knocked the urns over and they are really proud of themselves and are huddled together plotting their next adventure.
