How to Make a Burlap Utensil Holder

I made my burlap utensil holder using my sewing machine, but you could totally make this a no-sew project by using Tacky Glue instead of a sewing machine or sew the project together by hand with a needle and thread.

I’ll provide the directions for using a sewing machine since that’s how I made my burlap utensil holders.

Make this easy to sew burlap utensil holder out of burlap ribbon. Follow this easy tutorial from The Birch Cottage to add a little bit of rustic charm to your tablescape!

Supplies for Burlap Utensil Holder:

  • Burlap Ribbon – 5” x 30″
  • Tacky Glue
  • Button – 1-3/4”
  • Twine – 4” long
  • Ribbon – 7” long
  • Darning Needle
  • Sewing Machine (optional)

Instructions for Burlap Utensil Holder:

  1. Cut a 5” wide ribbon of burlap 30” long.
  2. Serge, sew or glue the short ends together.
  3. Turn the ribbon so the seam is on the inside of the loop of burlap ribbon.
  4. Lay the loop of ribbon out so that the seam is 5″ from one end. You’ll want the seam to fold towards the shorter end of the loop and fold up the top and bottom layer of the ribbon along the seam line. This will form the pocket for the utensils.
  5. Approximately 1″ from the top of the pocket, pull out enough strands of the burlap (the short 5″ strands) so that you can weave your ribbon through the burlap. I removed 3 strands for my ribbon.
  6. Cut a piece of ribbon 7” long. Weave the ribbon over and under every 2 strands of burlap. Make sure each end extends past the edge of the burlap. For the best results, you’ll want to tuck in or wrap around the ends of the ribbon between the first two layers of burlap ribbon.
  7. Stitch the long edges of the burlap, taking up 1/4” seam allowance. Be sure to catch the ends of the ribbon as you stitch the side seams.  
  8. Cut a piece of twine 4” long. Thread twine through darning needle. Insert darning needle through front of button hole, through the burlap front pocket and back through the burlap and the other eye of the button. Tie a knot on the top of the button. Trim twine edges to desired length.

I made my burlap utensil holder using a sewing machine, but you could definitely make this project using Tacky Glue or hand sewing with a needle and thread.

Add Buttons for Rustic Charm

I know I said the napkin rings added the perfect touch of rustic glam to your tablescape, but don’t you think these utensil holders take that perfection up a notch? I used the same button on my burlap utensil holder as I did the napkin rings.  The buttons are actually made of coconut shell and you can order them here.
