Decorating Ideas Using Burlap

Hessian (Burlap) was first exported from India in the early 19th century, and was traditionally used as backing for linoleum, rugs, and carpet.
Burlap is durable and is one of the most inexpensive material you can lay your hands on. The Hessian cloth made from either jute or sisal and other vegetable fibers is eco-friendly, making it the perfect choice for those who are conscious about the environment.
Over the ages, Hessian has been used to transport beans, grains, and even vegetables. Its coarse texture and breathable fabric resists condensation and spoilage, making it perfect to store coffee beans.
It is a perfect base material for home décor. You can use it to rev up old cabinets, and lend a new dimension to center tables. You can sew them up as curtains or use them as covers on tabletops. You can also use the fabric to create canvas and rugs, tote bags, and frames.
All you got to do is, keep your creative juices flowing and come up with creative and inventive ideas to put the fabric to use. Let's check out what else can you use burlap for, in this DecorDezine article.
