Taking Time Out to Craft

Make a Burlap Poinsettia Centerpiece

Nov 19, 2014 by Morena 2 Comments

 

Burlap is so plain and simple yet versatile, like a good pair of jeans. You can dress it up or tone it down by pairing it with different craft supplies.  With this project, I used colorful red burlap and added a little bling to make a pretty centerpiece for the holidays.
This post first appeared at Dollar Store Crafts, where you can find me every Tuesday!

 

Supplies:

  • Burlap
  • Pail
  • Syrofoam ball
  • Rhinestones

 

Step one:  Cut the burlap into three inch squares.

Step two:  Fold the burlap square in half twice.  Hold the folded corner and trim the edges off.

Step three:  Wrap the styrofoam ball with burlap and place it in the pail.

Step four:  Layer two flowers together, and pin them onto the styrofoam ball.

Step five:  Glue a rhinestone to the center of each flower.

 

I embellished my pail a bit by adding a mini Santa ornament to the front of it.  I love this red burlap, and the color is what inspired me to make poinsettias.  If you want to make this centerpiece for Thanksgiving, you could use natural burlap instead, like I did with the centerpiece pictured below.  This is such a quick, inexpensive project that you could easily make them in lots of colors, and just swap out the burlap flowers as the seasons change!

    You’re so clever!! As much as I like the poinsettias I really like the centrepiece with the natural coloured flowers – thanks so much for sharing.
