Aren't these just so cute! I saw a picture of these somewhere, I don't remember where and fell in love with the look. They fit my farmhouse style perfectly.
I set out to recreate the look ...
I already had the ticking on hand so cut it into 7 by 6-inch pieces or close to that.
I pinked the length ends (7-inch sides) ...
Placed a recycled used canning lid in the center ...
folded both sides over the canning lid (I used a dab of clue to hold it in place)
Do you see what I did next?
Those two rubber bands were used to scrunch up both ends ...
For the final touch, I cut two 10-inch pieces of red rickrack and tied on each end covering the rubber bands ...
As you can see, I made several!
Once I had them made, I popped outside and cut a few sprigs of fresh rosemary and bay leaves.
I arranged them all in this wooden bowl and this is the end result ... I absolutely love the look!
I gathered enough rosemary and bay leaves to fill this cup while outside as well ...
It's beginning to look a lot like Christmas ...
(This was a project where I used what I had on hand ... that's my goal for this holiday season decor ... use what I have on hand to make new decor and or update what I've been using for years.)
Until next time ...
