Farmhouse Friday * Farmhouse Inspiration



I wanted to revisit this tutorial for

LaurieAnna's Farmhouse Friday

because it can be used on

so many different surfaces and is

perfect for farmhouse decorating ~


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 !



Make sure and visit the

Tutorials link at the top

Love it... I do LOVE the look of Burlap..But I think I am allergic to it....I always seem to get a bit itchy when working with it... I am always a bit envious of those who can work with it on a frequent basis...
