Coffee Bag Upholstery Project!

I was so fortunate to receive a pile of burlap coffee sacks from my good friend

Mel over at Junkin Junky a while back. She had done a project with coffee sacks and I commented how jealous I was, and how I wasn't able to get any around here. Well that sweet thing just went ahead and sent me some. Love her!

I hope if you haven't already been to her blog, head on over and check her out. Wow, does she ever have some crazy talent! I still don't think that gal sleeps because she just cranks out project after project. Funny, she assures me she gets her shut-eye but I think she must be sleep walking and crafting at the same time!

I feel bad because they've pretty much been collecting dust. I came across them the other day and thought I should start putting these to use, so decided I would recover my black bench in the Dining Room.

Here is the before, a little boring!

And here is the after, voila!

I love the wording on it!

I think it goes well with my semi-burlap curtains!

Now I just need to tackle some pillows. Should I do them with the remaining sacks I have?

Or maybe I'll just make one big one, any thoughts?

I've decided to start tackling the many projects I have on my list this summer. So its nice to get this one checked off! I'm currently doing a fun art piece for my entry.

So stayed tuned!
