DIY Burlap Utensil Holder-Valentine’s Day Edition

Thanks For Sharing!

It’s Week 4 in the Dog Days of Winter Are Over Series and it’s all about Valentine’s Day! For my LOVE-IT project, I chose to make DIY Burlap Utensil Holders inspired by I {Heart} Nap Time’s Thanksgiving Utensil Holder. I love Jamielyn’s so much that I decided to make my own Valentine’s Day Edition.

Cut your burlap to fit your utensils. I cut mine on the fold so I only had to hot glue the sides together. And just to caution you, I would cut it a little larger than you would like because burlap tends to slide while you cut it and you might need to trim it a few times to get it straight. Or am I the only one that this happens to?! :)

I used Snow White Americana Acrylic Paint for my heart, but you would use any white textile paint.

Using a fine tip brush, I free handed a heart and then filled it in. But you could always use a stencil if you are more comfortable with that.

Lastly, I added some red and white baker’s twine for a little embellishment.

    Taryn–great for any holiday!!!
    do you know that if you pull one thread out of the burlap, it will then sort of give you a line to cut on?

    catching you!
