The amazing light fixture - I am looking at the covering of the cord that feeds the light fixture in this picture. I think it's amazing. Did you do it yourself? Please share how if you did. Thank you. »

Kerrie L. Kelly Great grain sacks! Looks like it is a subtle tone like Dunn Edwards' Ivory Oats, DE5358.

What Houzz contributors are saying:

added by Lauren Donaldson to Surprise Contender: Burlap for Accessories

Problem: It's too flimsy for the project I’m attempting.Solution: Burlap is durable, but it lacks the built-in stiffness that might be necessary for certain projects. Despite the loosely woven fibers, it is possible to stiffen it up. Mist spray starch from the craft or grocery store over the burlap before ironing it. Spray one side, let the starch sink in for 10 to 20 seconds, iron and then repeat on the opposite side. Another alternative is fabric stiffener, which should make the burlap even more rigid and firm.Design detail: Turn burlap into a work of art. The typography on this vintage cocoa bean sack makes a graphic statement in a room rich with eclectic details. Cut the sack down to size and spray it with starch to make it easier for framing. The starch should prevent the fabric from future sagging.
