I went today & got some mason jars & some twig wire ribbon, to make some candle holder decorations for our head table. I LOVE how these turned out!! = ) Here are some pics!



This morning, I also got around to cutting out our 30x30 burlap squares for the reception tables. We're going to embroider some pine boughs on them, so they aren't completely finished, but I'm so happy to have them cut out!

Here's a stack of all of them cut out!!

I also picked up the supplies to make a burlap wreath & some toasting flutes for $0.99/piece at the Goodwill, that I'm going to personalize.
Excited to start those projects next!! = )

Sarahsue - I found my burlap on Craigslist, on a whim. There was a machinery shop that had bolts of 40"x100' burlap for $39. Unfortunately, it was a few months ago when I got it, so they probably don't have it anymore. I would check out Craigslist! = )
Oh & I just remembered, Laura (newlyseliski), is making burlap table runners for her wedding. I can't remember when it is, but maybe it would work out for you to buy them from her? You should PM her! = )
SarahSue - I am making almost 30 table runners of various sizes out of one of those huge rolls of burlap! We cut them all about a month ago and have been slowly doing simple single rolled seams around the edges. The burlap creases very nicely for it!
We also have a lot of extra yardage that we don't really have much use for yet unless we have to add extra tables. I'll definitely be selling them all afterwards, too! Most of our tables are round 5' or 6', but we also have a 14' long baron's table and several 8'-long banquet tables. Feel free to PM me if you'd like any more info!
