When I was at the Dallas Gift Market this last week I
saw a bunch of burlap numbered things ~
I LOVE them !
Since I have burlap around and
buckets around I thought it would be fun
to recreate that look ~
Here is a quick tutorial on how to do them ~
It is super duper easy!
1. Cut a piece of burlap a size that would fit
your bucket ~ I cut it then fray it a bit ~
2. Paint an area on the front of your burlap
that is larger than your number stencil ~
It doesn't matter what brand paint you use ~
This is some I had ~
3. Lay down your stencil and paint it in whatever
color you would like ~ I used black ~
4. After it dries then I used Modge Podge
on the back of the burlap ~
5. Place it on your bucket and
smooth out the bubbled areas ~
That is all and it is super quick !
If you don't want to make your
own I have them on my website, here ~

What a gorgeous idea! and thank you for the tips, so simple in fact ...
I like this. I have a container for my handmade soap and was going to burlap the front. Nice to have a visual before experimenting...now I know what I had in mind for my project will actually work...thanks!
I went to the Dallas Gift show years ago when "country" was in it's "hey-day" and it was a wonderful place to visit......I had a Country Gift Shop at the time and we had relatives there. It was a fun and wonderful day and I ordered many things and they sold very well.
Thanks Lori...hoping you have a wonderful holiday!!
I LOVE your tutorial and sharing this cute little tip! The end result is beautiful!
