What to make from Burlap?

I have set myself a challenge to make as many things as I can out of 2 metres of burlap (hessian). I've already made my Merry Christmas burlap banner and my Lindt chocolate tree, but what else can I make?

Here is some burlap love from pinterest.

    I love all of these. I've started small this year with a burlap tree skirt, but will definitely do more next Christmas!

    Years ago, I made burlap throw pillows for my couch, and put a lacy doily in the middle of the top of the pillow, so you had the contrast of the burlap and lace.

    I love the burlap Christmas stockings.

    Wheeee! So many beautiful things out of burlap. I love it. I always wash it a few times before I sew with it. Then it is so soft and sweet!

    Gorgeous pics I love those big bows on the chairs.
    We also have a train for our tree, the kids love it.

    Love all of your images. I like the idea of a burlap christmas skirt but won't get to it this year. I did make a table runner a while ago. ;-)

    Love, love your blog, thank you for visiting mine and your comments :). I will be taking some time to look at your blog more closely as I love what I have seen so far but sadly I have to dash out the house so will come back again later.

    Nice to meet someone closer, most bloggers are in the USA, nice to have a Aussie friend. Blogs are not that well known in NZ and I am trying to get known but it takes time thats for sure.

    I will be back again soon.

    Lee

    I just love all of the ideas for burlap! I found you via DIY Showoff- I knew I'd like your style because I have that same photo of the chairs pinned too :)

    I just love everything that you pinned - was tempted to just re-pin everything. :) Thanks for the (p)inspiration!
