Put a Pin In It - Burlap Vase Cover

Have you ever been so inspired by a pin that you immediately need to run out and hunt down all the supplies and create it as soon as possible?

When I saw Thistlewood Farm's 'easy peasy burlap vase project', I had one of those moments.  Less than a day later, I had my very own 'easy peasy burlap vase'.

Fortunately, I already had some flowers, thanks to a crafting experience gone wrong with my handsome husband.

So the timing of this 'easy peasy burlap vase' pin could not have been more perfect.

I love how the burlap wrap covers the stems and water and gives the flowers a more complete look.

This project certainly did live up to its name.  It was both easy and peasy. 

If you want to make one of your own, head over to Thistlewood Farm and check out KariAnne's tutorial.

DIY Flower Frog

Want some help arranging your flowers?

First, you'll need someone to give you some flowers.

Then you'll need a vase and some tape.  Using the tape, create a grid, over your vase.

Cut your flowers down to a size appropriate for your vase.  Then fill the holes from the grid in with your flowers.

And admire...

No wilting, no sagging.

Hmmm...I wonder if this would work for me as well.
