Burlap Bachelorette Banner

I have a busy day of sewing and making ahead of me but I wanted to drop in to the blog for a minute and share a recent project of mine.  I was asked to make some custom items for a bride's bachelorette party that were to be made out of burlap.  This bride is incorporating burlap into her wedding for a shabby chic, rustic look and her wedding planner thought it would be fun to tie that design element into the bachelorette party too.  One of the items I created was this banner:

I really love the pink and grey combination mixed with the burlap, a great juxtaposition of girly and rustic.  Burlap has such a great texture and it is such a versatile material in my opinion.  I think you can dress it up and down and do all kinds of things with it.  I just know this bride's burlap wedding is going to rock because there are so many great design possibilities with this material.    

I hope the bride enjoyed her custom burlap banner and had a great bachelorette party.  I had a lot of fun making these items for her.

Are you a fan of burlap?  Have you incorporated it into your wedding or home?  Check out my burlap inspiration board on Pinterest to see more creative ideas with this material.

I love this! Did you use paint for the letters? That font is wonderful!

Great questions Stephanie! The letters were traced onto muslin, cut out, and then fabric glue was used to adhere the muslin to the burlap. The font used for this is called IFC Railroad and it's free! Download it here: http://www.dafont.com/ifc-railroad.font
