Let's Talk Burlap

by Michelle Aspesi - The Bella Cottage

urlap is a treasure when it comes to rustic-style decorations. It can be used in the home or outdoors, and is especially helpful for special events and holidays to help keep the rustic feel for any occasion. Though burlap is commonly used as a strong sack to harbor objects and protect them from wet environments, there is more than meets the eye to this material. When paired with the elegant frames of vintage French furniture, the end result is a happy marriage of textures that is both comfortable and luxurious! Who’d have thought?
