Burlap Pillows made with Grocery Sacks

Burlap is so itchy, stinky, and messy fun to use! The texture is to die for. But seriously, does it have to be so messy?! Am I the only one that has my vacuum armed and ready while I'm working with burlap? Anyways, I really do love burlap. I suppose it's more of a love/hate relationship though. And you know, tan burlap is fabulous and all, but I have enough tan around my house. I want me some color!! So I've been using the "other" burlap colors. As in brown, white, and red. I made my Give Thanks pillow using the leftover brown burlap from my crib spring makeover. For a quick pillow tutorial, check out La T Da.

And this Be Merry pillow is made from the leftovers of another freakin awesome burlap project that I'll be unveiling very soon.... sorry for the suspense, but I not quite done. :)

And in the middle of making these pillows awesome pillows, I ran out of batting. So one of them is stuffed with these:

Kind of embarrassing, but I didn't want to run to the store just to buy more batting when we have a bajillion of these laying around. Can you guess which pillow is stuffed with grocery sacks?

And just so you know, I think the grocery sacks did a better job of stuffing....
