I didn't think it was possible but my love of burlap has grown even more. Have you seen all the different colors and patterns that are now available in burlap? I was in my local fabric store a few weeks ago and spotted some bolts behind the counter area that hadn't even made it onto the shelves. It was burlap dressed up for the holidays - colors like red and green with gold circles or with just enough of a gold thread to make it festive. I managed to contain my excitement and thought about what I could make. I took 1 1/2 yards (my go to yardage for pillows or a table runner). I chose cream with a gold thread running through it. I decided to make covers for the kitchen chairs - a cozy shawl for the winter months LOL. Here's the details of the project;

The tassel is a perfect addition. These covers really make the room look festive. I found this on Elizabeth and Co.
