Burlap Bags

{French Burlap Bags; $119-130 measuring 26 W x 40" L}

The craze for burlap is never ending! We get calls and emails on a DAILY basis requesting us to hunt down this burlap thing and that burlap thing in our frequent pilgrimages to France.

One such recent request was for a film starring Jennifer Aniston. The set design team wanted us to hunt down at least 18 AUTHENTIC burlap with printed French writing in order to reupholster a variety of chairs. A handful remains in our inventory
.......................and they are fantastic!

We'd love to fashion them into long bench cushions or upholster the back of a Bergere Chair....but we're more anxious to see what YOU do with them!



The above Burlap Bags are available NOW, but new reproduction burlap pillows are on their way!~~ New Designs arriving very, very soon! Pre order this week; your card is not charged until March 1; order ships March 6. Many more designs coming but here's a preview:

This time around several are available in the same style for your bigger projects (this will be noted in the description as "multiples available").

Not the best picture, but we did this to one of our five trees when we couldn't find another stand. Instant fix in a pinch!

A little something under the tree? We're crazy for this hard-to-find tabletop size Antique French Bottle Dryer. Measuring 18.5" H x 16" W.

We have over 300 in stock so be sure to indicate red, blue on light weight or heavy weight and we'll accommodate your preferences (while supplies last of course!).

All grain bags are $58/ea for basic non-monogrammed and $64 for basic monogrammed; range in sizes of 40-42" L x 19-22" W. If you require exact sizing let us know and we'll measure out the one that grabs your eye. More unique sacks are individually priced.

Want a grain bag made into a pillow? OUR PLEASURE!! Pillows range from $69 - $115/ea and include soft poly fill inserts (similar feel to down feathers).

Originally used to hold grains, these bags can be easily washed on gentle cycle. We like to use any delicate detergent and then add in 5x the standard amount of fabric softener to make them extra delish....Extra stubborn stains?? BIZ is the miracle worker (sold at Target and most grocery stores).

I *HEART* OPRAH

....and Danny Seo, and Kerry Washington!!

Well now you know why the blogging has been so remiss---the power of Oprah hit us two years ago and then again this past month. IT'S BEEN MAHEM! WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL MAHEM!

We thought we were busy before. We thought we took too few breaks and rest stops before. Oh no......Oprah's reach in her "O" magazine has made it super-duper-mega frega crazy {as my 5 year old Goddaughter would say}.

Thanks as always to our favorite environmental designing guru, Danny Seo {who has a fab blog in addition to all his fab work: http://www.DAILYDANNY.COM}, and to the drop-dead gorgeous Kerry Washington, whom we love and adore. Working with this team was, in word, FUN!

{Kerry's office holds many of our vintage items such as yellow French Bistro Chair, bag and slew of accessories...}

{Living room now is home to Vintageweave's pillows of vintage French fabrics, grain bags, tea towel pillows and a burlap roll from one of our favorite vendors, Vagabond...}
{...Still more pillows....}
{....Red stripe runner, Cote Bastide creamware dishes, vintage vase, grainbag pillows and antique French hemp pillow...; runner is available on our website now...}

{One of my most favorite items is how Danny transformed a boring pet step by covering it with a vintage Indian rug. See lower left of picture. Isn't it great??}
{Kerry's kitchen is chockfull of Cote Bastide creamware dishes and cast iron pedestals. Since this publication hit, I'm sorry to say all of these items have completely sold out and are now retired.}
