More Burlap Goodness

Do ya think ya'll can stand one more blogger's burlap stocking pictorial???  


I couldn't help myself.  
I just had to whip up some burlap stockings to hang from the hangy hook thing in the powder room.  Seems silly to have a hangy hook thing with no thingys hanging from it.  
Say that ten times fast ;o)


"What to do?" I thought.  
"Why, I'll sew up some burlap stockings, and use some of the same line of curtain fabric to embellish them."  

Funny thing, when I purchased that hangy hook thing at Pier 1 about a year ago, I didn't even realize it coordinated perfectly with the fabric I used to make the valance in the powder room.  Don't ya just love when stuff like that happens.  


Serendipitous!


They look so darn cute in there, I'm thinking they may have found a permanent home.







They're not the only bit of burlap in the powder room.  Back in the summer I added some burlap inside a frame and slapped a starfish in there with some hot glue.  
It's staying too.  


And just to stay consistent with the starfish and burlap bit, I added yet more burlap and more starfishes in among those Christmas balls and greens.  


And the best part, this whole arrangement will carry through the whole winter.  
One less change I'll have to make after Christmas.






Thanks for visiting!

I love them, Carla! I love how you did each trim differently, too. The other accessories are great, too. I like how you added the starfish in with the ornaments to keep up your "regular" theme.
