    burlap memo board tutorial

    Uncategorized

     first i got a piece of wood

     then i cut a piece of hessian and put strips of masking tape down the middle and then painted it white.

     then i chose the wording i wanted, i decided i wanted to write i love my house, in french. so i used a stencil and painted it using a sponge paint brush and black paint.

     my house is really old so i put a date too. next i cut some wadding and placed it over the wood

     then i put the hessian over the top.

     then i folded the edges behind and used a glue gun to stick it in place.

     then i got black string and used pins to succure it.

     then i put pins where the black string crosses over.

    and its done.
