I purchased a small live plant at Trader Joes to use on my dining room table for a centerpiece. Something small and easy to move when I need to use the table for projects, sewing, painting, or even DINING! 😀 I loved the plant but the container it was in wasn’t my favorite. So I did an easy burlap upcycle to make it more my style.
You will need:
Plant
Burlap (I had a roll of wide burlap ribbon in my stash)
scissors
large pin (I used a corsage pin)
Cut the burlap long enough to wrap around the container twice. Wrapping twice gives it fuller coverage and just looks nicer.
Wrap the container with burlap.
Fasten with the pin. Put the pin in going down so it doesn’t fall out. I mention this because I’ve been known to do it the other way – thus I know it can fall out 😉
This is a perfect centerpiece all by itself but you can add a few other greens around it and a favorite small if you like. I added a stack of ironstone butter pats and a tiny mortal and pestle.
Easy project upcycle that has a big impact!
Happy crafting and creating as the countdown to Christmas continues!

Thanks Marisa! Sometimes the simplest things can have the best impact!
