Burlap Acorns

   **ETA- What to see how to make these??? Click HERE.**

Ok….last year my mom bought these adorable faux acorns. They were about the size of a hand and were made out of dried leaves for the bottom on the acorn and many acorn tops for the top of the acorn.  She bought them at a big time ritzy antique/decor shop in Amish Country – about 1/2 hour from where we live. I fell in love with them but and $10 each, could not afford them….and even if I could I would not spend that kind of money. MY hubby is not nearly as easy going as my father is about such purchases. So this year I made a version of my own from things I had on hand…and a few acorn tops we found at the park. AND it cost me NOTHING.  Yep…say it with me, sistas...FREE!!!!!

  1. How cute! you did a great job. I went to the fabric store the other day to get me some burlap, but it was $5.00 a yard. I thought I would wait for a sale, or try walmart.
