Burlap Coffee Sack Turned Wall Art . . . . Plan B

I had a project all set and ready to go for this coffee sack. I planned to cover a foot stool and I even made a cute little flirty skirt for the bottom of it. However, when I started to cover the top of the stool, I quickly discovered that the print was completely off center. (bleep, bleep, bleep!) So, here's Plan B. I recently found this frame in the trash and I thought hmmm, why not a graphic piece of wall art? I guess this project is truly trash to treasure.








This has nothing to do with my post but, I went to the flea market over the weekend and found a vendor that was selling vintage photos. Most of them were black and whites of children. My heart skipped a beat. I absolutely love vintage photos of children. I bought several of them this one was one of my favorites. It even comes complete with an apparition. JK -Just kidding! I am thinking of project that I can use them.

I feel so inspired to add a few of these ideas in my own home. I rencently discovered that you create your own stencils by printing numbers off the computer in the font and size of your choice and then, simply trace the outline of the numbers and use a craft knife to cut them out. Then, you are ready to add numbers to your boxes, drawers, pillows, doors, and anything else you can think of. My personal favorite is the first pic, the cork board covered with burlap. It is just soooooo me!!
Hope you feel inspired!!!

Burlap Coffee Bean Sack Turned Bulletin Board

I love this project on so many levels, burlap, chicken wire, the graphic image on the front of the sack, and the smell of fresh coffee beans, Oh my!!! The possibilities are endless since, coffee beans come from all over the world and there are so many different graphic images imprinted on them .
