I am so excited to introduce you to a new sponsor at Styled by Jess – Offray Ribbon. I’ve used their ribbon in the past (here) and love, love it! They’ve recently launched an online shop for their ribbon so you can shop for any color, size, pattern you need right online. I recently used some bright, summery Offray ribbon to make my own table runner. I always like to freshen the look of my kitchen table every season and/or holiday so I thought this Burlap and Ribbon Table Runner would be perfect for a bright summer look.
To make your own Burlap and Ribbon Table Runner you’ll need: a roll of burlap (I found a role that was 2 feet wide and perfect to make a table runner with), very sharp scissors, glue gun, measuring tape, and ribbon – I chose 2 of different size and color/pattern to make it look more interesting.
Start by measuring and then cutting holes into your burlap that you will weave the ribbon through. For example: the green ribbon is 1 1/2″ thick so that is the width hole I cut in the burlap. You can make the distance between holes however large you want – I like the look of a long amount of ribbon between weaves so I went with 2″. Cutting into burlap is very forgiving so don’t worry too much if you end up cutting too much on any of the holes.
Once your cuts are made for that row of ribbon, cut a piece of ribbon to the width of your burlap, and weave through each hole.
Use your glue gun to glue down each end so the ribbon doesn’t slip out of the holes.
Continue cutting, weaving, and gluing until desired pattern is reached.
And voila – an adorable, colorful handmade burlap and ribbon table runner.
Thank you to Offray for sponsoring this post! And thank you for supporting the brands that support Styled by Jess.
