Burlap Ruffle Frame {{tutorial}}

I LOVE FALL

{in case you haven't noticed yet from past posts...}

and I LOVE to decorate for fall...I love all the warm colors and textures!

I made this 

Burlap Ruffle Framed Mirror 

in less than 30 minutes...and the best part is I can use it YEAR ROUND!!!

What you'll need : 

~ Frame or Mirror

~ Burlap(or fabric of choice)I used about a 1/4 yard

~ hot glue gun

~ sewing machine (to make your ruffle)

How to : 

Start by cutting your fabric into equal strips of about 1"

 I used four strips for my mirror

{ i cut two of the strips in half and the other two strips into four pieces}

Next using your sewing machine turn each strip into a ruffle

{if you don't know how to sew a ruffle it's easy...*sew a straight line down the middle of your fabric with your sewing machine set on the least amount of tension and longest stitch length...leave a long piece of string at the beginning and end of your stitches...pull gently on each end of the strings to create the ruffle*} 

After you have all your RUFFLES....using your hot glue gun...GLue down each section.

I did the four longest pieces first (two on top and two on the bottom...) then I did the sides!

and then your done :)

 pretty easy huh?

I added some FALL leaves to the middle of my mirror that I can easily change out and replace with the appropriate holiday decor! 

otherwise this baby is staying up ALL year long :)
