Flowers and leaves of jute. DIY burlap flower - a stylish solution for decorating the interior


  Burlap - a simple, rough to the touch, but very durable fabric. Traditionally, it is used to make work clothes, canvas for paintings, sew bags, and use it for upholstery. And in the hands of skilled craftswomen, this material becomes a wonderful decorative element. There are a lot of options for using burlap, for example, from it you can make a bouquet of flowers, a topiary, sew a pillow or decorate a pot or vase.

Want to learn how to turn a plain piece of coarse fabric into a beautiful vintage flower? Original burlap flowers will be a wonderful decoration for a handbag, hat or dress. They can be attached to a hairpin, elastic band for hair or bezel.





Such flowers will ideally complement the interior in a country style, shabby chic or provence. They will look great in a vase in the kitchen of a country house or in the living room of a city apartment.

Vintage burlap rose

Try to make flowers from rough fabric with your own hands with the help of this master class. For work, we need:

  • sackcloth;
  • lace ribbons;
  • beads and beads;
  • soft felt;
  • pins for sewing, needles, scissors.



Operating procedure

  1. Cut a rectangular piece of burlap and fold it in half. Then carefully fold it into a tube and secure it with a pin.
  2. We begin to form the petals, making a bend on the fabric in the opposite direction.
  3. We continue to form the bud, periodically making creases on the fabric. We stop when the flower reaches the desired size.
  4. Having fixed the edge of the fabric with a pin, we begin to make the lining of the flower. Cut another strip of fabric (it should be slightly larger than the diameter of our bud). In small stitches we collect one of the edges of the fabric, forming a circle. You can slightly dissolve the outer edges of the fabric circle. So our craft will look even more interesting.
  5. You can make an additional lining for a flower made of soft felt. You just need to cut a circle and cut its edges.
  6. Now you can start assembling all the parts. We attach the beautifully assembled lace ribbon to the round base. Then we put the already prepared bud there. We fix the entire structure on a felt lining.
  7. It remains to decorate the rose from burlap - embroider with beads and beads or attach a ready-made brooch.
  8. By analogy, you can make another flower. To the back of the burlap you need to attach a felt strip. For the rest, you need to act as in the previous master class.


You can combine fabrics of different colors and textures. A composition of flowers made from coarse fabric will look great in a vase or in a panel picture. A vase decorated with burlap and lace is perfect for such a bouquet.

Burlap Topiary

We suggest you to make a topiary of burlap, familiarizing yourself with the master class.

Materials for work:

  • sackcloth;
  • lace tape;
  • ball-base (made of polystyrene, papier-mâché, a plastic ball for children or a finished ball for a topiary);
  • twine;
  • some cement;
  • stick (you can take the base from paper towels);
  • acrylic paint;
  • flower pot;
  • sea \u200b\u200bstones, expanded clay, polystyrene or decorative grass;
  • beads, pearls and other decor;
  • needle, thread, scissors, thermal gun.



Operating procedure

  1. If you don’t have a special ball for topiary, you can make it yourself from newspapers or papier-mâché. As a basis for the ball, you can use a stick from paper towels.
  2. We wrap the ball with stripes of burlap, so we hide everything unnecessary.
  3. Flowers can be made in several ways. Cut circles, fold them into a flower shape. Sew on a typewriter and stick to the ball. Another way: cut strips from burlap, bend them and turn them into a bud, forming a rosette. Attach a lace ribbon to the bud. We make the required number of such buds and fix them on the ball.
  4. We decorate a tree trunk with twine. We fix the structure in the pot, fill it with cement.
  5. It remains to decorate the topiary with beads, ribbons and lace to your taste.

Topiary decorated with burlap organically fits into eco-style, Provence, country, eclecticism and the interior of a country house.

  • The finished product can be painted with spray paint.
  • You need to cut the fabric at an angle so that the edge is a little shaggy.
  • You can fasten the parts together with a stapler or glue gun.
  • Wooden beads, buttons, twine, dried flowers and flax cuts are ideal for decorating burlap compositions.
  • The combination of coarse fabric and delicate lace looks very organic and elegant.

DIY do-it-yourself folk burlap doll

Since ancient times, manual work has been appreciated by admirers of folk art. And although now the hand-made has many directions and techniques, the origins of the main trends are emerging from folk customs and rituals.

Very popular souvenirs in the form of amulets for the home. You can do this yourself yourself if you wish. There are always shreds of natural materials at home.


Burlap amulets always look relevant and fit into almost any environment. With the help of our step-by-step photo instructions, you can make a beautiful craft doll-amulet from burlap and twine.

In order for such a future attribute of your house to really fill the house with positive energy, you need to start sewing only with a good mood and positive thoughts.

First, make a head for the workpiece. Inside the square patch, put the synthetic winterizer and sew along the edges, giving the material a round shape. The edges of the doll's head need to be tucked into the neck of a plastic bottle (0.5 liter).

In order to keep this part for sure, it is glued to the edge of the neck with glue. The doll’s hands are made of fabric strips that need to be stitched and turned inside out.

You should get a stitched strip that looks a bit like a pipe. We cut holes in the bottle where we extend this tube from burlap. The ends of the hands must be bandaged with jute, so as to separate the brush from the sleeve of the shirt.

Measure the length and width of the bottle, sew the body of the doll, which we put on the bottle. Do not forget to cut holes for the hands on the body. A thin piece of burlap wrap around the neck of the doll.

We complement the image of the beauty with several aprons that need to be strung on a lace. When all the aprons have been minted and threaded, we tie the doll right under your arms with this detail. You have done a good job and we hope you are satisfied with your result.

Everyone can create flowers from burlap. This is a pleasant and useful hobby, because there are many variations of the flowers themselves. They make bouquets, holiday wreaths, and jewelry. Adds attractiveness and the fact that it’s easy to do such a thing yourself, it’s enough to master the basics of technology.

What do you need for crafts

Such burlap needlework is an inexpensive pleasure. Among the main auxiliary items are the following:

  • burlap itself;
  • threads (the same color as textiles);
  • pin (for fastening moving elements);
  • wire (creates a frame);
  • glue (volume creation);
  • decorative details (beads, rhinestones, ribbons).

Do-it-yourself burlap flowers based on photos found on the Internet. It is easier to push off the finished design. Therefore, initially it is worth familiarizing yourself with the design options, and then set about directly creating your own masterpiece.

Universal technology

The easiest way is to apply the method of gluing burlap onto a finished frame of wire petals. The algorithm of actions is as follows:

1. First, glue the burlap with glue. Next, the fabric should dry. Thus, the textile becomes hard and will easily take the desired shape.

Coat the burlap with glue

2. Preparing wire frames - in the form of future petals. They must be of different shapes. So the flower looks more natural.

  Making wire petals

3. The metal petals are superimposed on the glued pieces of fabric and are again treated with an adhesive. For better bonding, cover the blanks with a film and put a heavy object on top. In this form, the craft remains for one day - to dry.

  Glue the petals to the burlap

4. Scissors cut the petals along the contour and cut the excess thread. All edges should be even. After the petals are combined into one flower and twisted with wire. Elements of the flower can be bent and give them the desired volume.

As decoration, choose lace, beads and rhinestones. You can add colors using nail polish - both monophonic and with sparkles.


Finished result

Create a vintage rose

A master class on creating an elegant flower involves the use of:

  • burlap;
  • lace ribbons;
  • beads - better than solid in color;
  • soft felt.

Auxiliary tools are pins, needles and scissors.

First, a burlap in the shape of a rectangle is cut. This piece of fabric is folded in half and rolled up into a tube. In order for the fabric not to return to its previous position, it is fixed with a pin.

We form the petals by bending the fabric in the opposite direction.  Thus, a bud based on textile creases is obtained. Continue to fold the flower should be until the desired size.


  Making a burlap rose

The next step is to fasten the bud with a pin and create a lining. It is made from another piece of material.  In this case, it should be more than a flower. Gathering fabric with small stitches, you should get a circle. It is allowed to slightly tighten the tightening of the outer edges. A denser lining is felt. A circle is cut out of it and cuts are made at the edges.


  Making the basis for a flower

After preparing all the elements proceed to their connection:

1. Lace tape is attached to the base.

2. A bud is placed in the center.

3. The whole structure is attached to a felt lining.

4. It is worth making small stitches in the center of the bud - so they can be easily hidden with trim.


  We connect all the details

Beads, brooches and rhinestones act as decoration. They are placed randomly over the entire surface of the flower.  Fasten both with glue and using thread. After creating several flowers, you can try to combine them in a picture-panel. Different textures and rudeness of burlap colors look unusual and stylish. You can decorate your dressing table with a vase sheathed with lace and burlap flowers.

This type of hobby is constantly being improved. Quality items are sold at hand-made exhibitions and simply delight the eye of guests at home.

To make the element decorated with flowers from burlap look beautiful and serve for a long time, you should know a few useful tips:

  • The last step in the manufacture of such a decor element should be spray paint. It will fix the shape and color of the decoration.
  • To make the thing neat, you should do all the incisions of the fabric at an angle. In this way, the textiles will be slightly chipped, which gives the flower a charm.
  • Convenience of fastening depends on the tools. If novice masters dispense with ordinary glue, then to create advanced products it is worth buying a glue gun or a quality stapler. This will speed up the work and reliably hold all the elements together.
  • For decor, choose elements in the style of things. Burlap is a coarse cloth. Therefore, this quality can be supported by wooden beads, buttons, compositions using linen fabrics. But there is the option of giving grace and laid-back beauty - with the help of imitation of pearl buttons, delicate lace and wildflowers. This is the most profitable technique for creating a retro interior.

Where to put such flowers

Different types of flowers are created from burlap - from field to greenhouse.  Their appearance is entirely up to the designer. In accordance with this, and choose a location for this type of decor:

  • Kitchen.  Here, sunflowers are suitable, the cores of which adorn coffee beans. The shade of burlap itself gives the leaves a decay. Therefore, it is worth creating a background for a picture from plain materials. There should be several colors - then the composition looks bright. Jars for cereals, sugar, and salt are also decorated with flowers in the kitchen. Curtains from similar materials will help to withstand the style.

A similar detail is very peculiar. Therefore, it is better to attach it with adhesive tape and look at the big picture. If the item does not fit, then it will simply be removed.

Needlework in the form of flowers from an unusual burlap material is a popular pastime. Creating unique elements of decor is simple and inexpensive. You can do things with your own hands and involve children in this activity.

It is important not to forget that burlap is rough material that is difficult to beat. Therefore, you can experiment and try new types of fabrics and beads that will help adapt the burlap to the style of the room.

Hello dear friends!

Now I will show you how to make jute twine flowers. Such flowers can be placed in a decorative vase, or used somewhere else for decor.

What is required for this:

  • Jute twine;
  • Tea spoon;
  • Wooden skewer or thick wire;
  • PVA glue;
  • Hot glue.

Step 1.

We apply PVA glue to the convex part of a teaspoon.

Step 2

From the edge of the spoon, to the center, spirally, glue the twine, periodically slightly smearing the coils with PVA glue. We wait 5 minutes and separate the petal from the spoon. We apply a small amount of glue to the surface, thereby fixing the threads. Leave to dry. Do such petals as much as you want to see on the flower, and they will also act as leaflets on the stem.

Step 3

We wind the jute twine on a wooden skewer or wire, fixing the turns and ends of the thread with PVA glue, the stem is ready. Dry the glue.

Step 4

We wind the jute thread in a small skein, tie it in the middle, cut the coils on one side, cut the second part behind the knot and push the cut ends.

Step 5

To the end of the coiled skewer, glue our fluffy skein with hot glue.

Step 6

Under the cannon at the end of the stem, with hot glue, glue the petals made earlier, and after that, we hide the place where the stem and the petals meet, applying PVA glue and wrapping a little twine.

Step 7

Glue two leaves and a bead to the center of the flower to the stem.

It turned out a wonderful flower for decoration. Beautiful and easy to manufacture.
