Burlap Seat Cushions


How much I love these old chairs, given to me by a friend. I also love my Dunn Brothers burlap coffee bags! Perfect for rustic cushions.



And to go along with my burlap bulletin board, seen HERE.






Because the bags are already seemed on both sides, I simply slipped in a foam cushion and cut the length, then used jute and a large needle to whip stitch them closed.


Perfect for a cup of coffee and a banana Java muffin.
Speaking of coffee.....
    Look what the lovely Julie from Louisiana sent me.

Seeing my love for coffee, she sent a wonderful bag of  Community , a brand we can not get here in ND..mmmm it is fantastic. And dark roast...my favorite!  Thank you Miss Julie!!

Now you can, in a manner of speaking, sit on your coffee and drink it too!

Those look great. I've got to get my hands on some coffee bags and make myself something - I love the look.

I have tons of coffee sacks, but none are as pretty as yours! {insert crying here}

Still, I may try this. The cushions on my dining room chairs are sooooo dated. I just saw some new ones I liked at Costco, but they would have run me $90 for the 6 chairs....don't think so.
