Happy Farmhouse Friday, everyone!
If you aren’t already crazy about old grain sacks, feed bags, and burlap sacks, will you be after today, because that’s our theme this week!
(This post contains affiliate links).
I’d be willing to bet the farmers of yesteryear never would have dreamed that we’d turn their work-worn sacks into beautiful things, and copy the look of them as well.
Do you think this love of grain sacks as modern decor is a trend that’s here to stay, or do you think it’s a passing fancy?
Here are a few of my own grain sack inspired projects!
My Rustic Framed Seed Bag makeover was my first big project using old seed bags.
This Rustic Framed Seed Bag hangs in my kitchen, where I enjoy it every day.
You can make your own Grain Sack Banner with my printable images!
I added a new Feed Bag stencil design to my line of Vintage Sign Stencils.
I used grain sack style fabric on my Typography Chair.
My Upcycled Foot Stool was made in the same style.
I used blue stripe fabric on this Upcycled Camp Stool.
Now let’s look at some amazing projects by other bloggers!
