can't. stop. making. table runners.

I'm addicted to making table runners out of our reclaimed burlap coffee bags.  In the new batch that I picked up from our great friends at Indigo Coffee, there was an orange one.  This made me very excited, because we have insane orange flowered vintage fabric that I swear my mother must have worn when she was pregnant with me (you do the math).  


And I must say, it's my best one yet.  Check it out here, and then snap it up at Twist!

burlap. oh yes, burlap coffee bean bags

Burlap bags are awesome.  Free burlap coffee bags from wonderful local business Indigo Coffee are even better.  Picking them up and getting a tour and a chat about everything from social justice to coffee to crafting:  best yet! 


We've been holding on to these burlap bags ever since Laurie sped over to Indigo Coffee after seeing their posting on Craig's List, and mulling over the myriad ideas for use.  Finally, with some brainstorming from our good friend and syndicated cartoonist (Rhymes with Orange) Hilary Price, we decided to pair them up with our vintage fabrics to create table runners.  The combination is just stunning.  


Check them out below, and come to Twist on November 11th and 12th and purchase your very own.  They make great holiday gifts!  We're also happy to do custom orders to suit your color scheme and table size.


And/or get crafty and create one yourself!  We'll be doing a table runner and napkin ring workshop on Sunday, December 11th in Florence at Hilary Price's sunny and creatively inspiring studio.  For more info and to sign up, shoot us an email!

the green from the burlap bag is a perfect match

with the green from the fabric

I think this is my favorite.  Love the blues, 

and the burlap is so tightly woven, it's like linen
