During a recent (and rare) afternoon of visiting blogs I discovered Kathleen over at Musings From A French Cottage. How many of us long to fill our cupboards and linen closets with beautiful, old French grain sacks? What IS it about this simple textile that causes a lot of hearts to pitter patter when they see it?But they are one of those splurges that drains the wallet quite a bit...hmm, big, beautiful grain sack pillow or a weeks worth of groceries? Well, Kathleen has devised a way to create faux ones! I knew after reading her "how to" post that I just had to share her creation with you. With her permission, here are Kathleen's step by step photos...be sure to visit her blog for detailed instructions. Thanks Kathleen!
Thank you for stopping by the original urban farmhouse! I've been blessed to be the sole proprietor of urban farmhouse since 2005 and thoroughly enjoy every minute of it.
