DIY Burlap Wedding Shower Invite


Check out these wedding shower invites I created. I saw the concept of "tying the knot" online (I am sorry I don't remember where) but took my own twist on it by using a DIY burlap ribbon. After this project I am annoyed with burlap. It's messy, smelly and very messy!!! We had a major craft fail cutting the ribbon stripes, but luckily I figured it out!! See my How to Cut Burlap post.

  1. I love the simple look of these. I have worked with burlap a lot - bet your hands were stinky for awhile, too! Followed you over from Scrappy Happy.

  3. Do you have the template you used for these? I LOVVVEEE them and am in the middle of creating invites myself. If not, do you have the dimensions?
