This easy to make, no-sew BURLAP RUNNER may be great to use all year round... but it's pretty woven pattern and easy breezy burlap ribbon is perfect for spring!

This runner has a very "anthropologie-ish " look without the price!
Here's how to make it...
Today I'm part of...
I love being a part of the no-sew girls! They are so so creative and encouraging! Make sure to check out all these creative no-sew spring home decor projects... You can find a link at the end of this post.
StoneGable Woven Burlap Runner... a no-sew project
2 packages of burlap ribbon (2.5 inches wide)
hot glue gun
scissors
1. Purchase 2 packages of burlap ribbon. About 2.5 inches wide and 10 yards long.
2. Measure out and cut 6 lengths plus 4 inches of the burlap ribbon. This will become the warp (see picture above).
My runner was 45 inches finished, so I measured out 6 lengths of ribbon 49 inches long.
3.Weave the ribbon on the roll (it is the weft). Begin weaving 2 inches in from one end of the warp.
Secure each weave with glue. Use a thin bead of glue.
4. Leave a 1 inch overlap at each weft end.
Weave the whole runner.
It's now time to glue the sides and ends of the runner.
5. Fold the end pieces that hang OVER the warp to the back and glue securely.
6. Cut the end pieces that are under the warp as close to it as possible and glue to the back of the runner.
When you are done, check all the edges make sure everything is securely glued down.
To get rid of any glue blobs and spiders, use a blow dryer on high and heat them until they melt away.
Ta-Da!
So easy! And it's NO-SEW!

Oh Yvonne how pretty is that runner! I've never seen burlap ribbon but boy does it make a wonderful statement as a runner for your table. And it's NO-Sew which is right up my alley!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for sharing such a brilliant idea.
Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!!

I love the woven-ness of it all….you got my attention at no sew! (….because I don't sew. At. All….)
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute table! Burlap ribbon makes the job easier, and I guess there is a lot less fraying.
xo,
RJ
Very clever, and boy do I love burlap ribbon!
ReplyDeleteJenna
So smart to use the burlap ribbon so the edges don't ravel! This is amazing and you are right. Very Anthro!
ReplyDeleteI love this! I will definitely be making some for myself and family members. Thanks for sharing :)
ReplyDeleteI made a no sew burlap runner with fringe last year and I'm still loving it. Kari Anne (Thistlewood Farm) featured it on her burlap projects blog too!
ReplyDeleteYvonne, I also wanted to let you know that I've signed up for your newsletter 2-3 times but still don't receive it. I have seen a couple of comments where some other ladies aren't getting it either, despite signing up. I don't know what else to do other than sign up again....any suggestions?
Judy, send me your e-mail address. Here where you can send it: stonegable333@gmail.com and I will enter it myself. Did you look in your Junk mail. Sometimes if your mail does not recognize something it goes into junk.
DeleteOkay so you go to the Weft and then to the Wight? :-D I LOVE this project. Adore it actually and you may see my version of it coming real soon to an Everyday Blog in your neighborhood. :) I actually have been thinking of weaving burlap with ribbon for this same affect. Now you got me fevered to try it. Love you my friend. xxoo, Barb
ReplyDeleteI thought of Weft and Wright too! So funny!
DeleteI just love this project, Yvonne. I keep looking at all of the different designs available in burlap ribbon, thinking that surely there's some really cute way to use it. Now I know! Thanks for the reminder about how to get rid of hot glue threads - I had totally forgotten about that tip.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great and EASY idea for a runner!!!!! I will have to get some ribbon, but will have to make mine longer for y table. Are you free on Tuesday?????? I am hoping to come up that way. Can you call me????? XOXOXO

ReplyDeleteI was wondering how you kept the edges from raveling, now I know ribbon was your secret! And I think I just happen to have a few rolls of burlap ribbon in red and green. You may see me making a Christmas version of this!
ReplyDeleteAs always, a wonderfully creative no-sew and great photos and styling!
~Yvonne !
ReplyDeleteThe runner is so neat!! Would any ribbon work ?

ReplyDeleteLove it! It's so cute and easy! btw, where did you get your burlap ribbon? I'm having a difficult time finding 2 1/2" unfrayed ribbon. Also, I'm sending you an email using the address you provided concerning your newsletter. I've signed up a couple of times. Theda
ReplyDeleteI got my burlap ribbon from AC Moore in my area.
DeleteThanks!
DeleteSuch a cute idea! I would love to make it, but I am having trouble finding the 2 1/2" ribbon also. Where did you find your ribbon? I found your blog a few days ago. Now I am hooked!!! Thank you.
