What you need:
All of these rustic Christmas decor ideas use one of these 3 basic burlap products:
1. Use burlap ribbon to display Christmas Cards
Why bother throwing all those Christmas cards you receive in a basket? Instead you can use wide ribbon, burlap and small clothes pins for displaying Christmas cards on your kitchen cabinets so you can enjoy looking at them throughout the holiday season.
2. Wrap your Christmas tree with burlap garland
Create a rustic Christmas tree quickly and easily this holiday season using wide burlap ribbon as garland.
3. Make your dining room festive with a burlap table runner
A small Christmas tree, sleigh or a extra large holiday centerpiece on a burlap table runner adds height and dramatic style to your holiday decor.
4. Create burlap flowers and bows to embellish holiday gifts
Learn to make these loopy burlap flowers from burlap ribbon. They’re the perfect rustic accent for your holiday gifts and easy to make!
5. Turn burlap into a rustic Christmas tree skirt
Every Christmas tree needs a pretty Christmas tree skirt! Wrap a burlap table runner around the base to hide your tree stand.
6. Set the mood for a holiday meal with burlap utensil holders and napkin rings
Get a little crafty and make burlap utensil holders for your silverware and burlap napkin rings. These both add more texture to your holiday dinner table. Plus they’d look great with the burlap table runner I suggested earlier.
7. Welcome holiday guests with a burlap wreath by your front door
I love holiday wreaths. Learn how to make a burlap wreath with festive accent ribbons to hang by your front door. It will set the tone for your rustic Christmas decor from the moment your guests walk in the door.
8. Save your furniture at holiday parties with easy DIY burlap coasters
Christmas is a time to eat, drink and be merry, but where are all your party guests supposed to set down their drinks? Whip up a dozen or two burlap coasters before your next holiday party to add a touch of rustic charm to your home decor.
9. Loop burlap around lighted evergreen garland above your kitchen cabinets
Placing evergreen garland above your cabinets is an easy way make your whole kitchen feel more festive. Better yet, wrap the garland with twinkly holiday lights and burlap ribbon to make it even more magical.
10. Tie burlap around the base of faux evergreen plants
Take a small piece of burlap and wrap it around the bottom of a small faux evergreen plant. Tie the burlap with twine to hold it in place. Then use the tree as a centerpiece or rustic Christmas decor for a bookshelf.
Better yet, put the little tree next to some inexpensive Christmas art. We have 21 gorgeous holiday printables in our Etsy shop, but the one you see below is FREE for Kenarry Idea Insiders. Sign up here and we’ll send it to you.
