Adorn your fireplace with a shabby chic DIY burlap Christmas garland. It's the perfect rustic Christmas decoration that adds a cosy, …

Materials

• 2-4 rolls burlap
• roll twine
• tape
• decorations of your choice

Instructions

1. Unroll one roll of the burlap and lay flat onto a work surface. Tie a piece of tape around the end of the twine to make a point which you can thread through the burlap.
2. Weave the twine in and out through the centre of the burlap from one end to the other (almost like sewing with a needle and thread).
3. For a bulky garland leave larger spaces between your weaves.
4. Once the twine is weaved all the way through, pull the twine tight and bunch the burlap together.
5. Repeat this for all 4 rolls (it depends how big you want to make your garland) and once finished tie them all together with the twine.
6. Rearrange the folds of the burlap, you might want to add some twists, and generally adjust the burlap so it looks like one continuous garland.
7. Before hanging you can add decorations such as Christmas lights, beads, pine cones, Christmas sprigs and Christmas ornaments.
8. Hang up the garland with hooks or drape around the staircase!
