Do you like my luggage holder? My suitcase is currently resting on it while I pack for my upcoming New Orleans trip.
Luggage Holder
I fished it out of a neighbors trash heap. It used to look like this:
A bit of sanding, heirloom white paint and jute webbing transformed it.
I adore jute webbing. (Also known as burlap webbing.) It’s humble beginnings associate it with upholstery shops. I recently bought a huge roll of it.
Burlap Webbing Projects
I’ve been collecting images on how other wonderful bloggers have used it. Super talented Debbie Hodge created this beautiful bag.
I have seen floor rugs, as well as upholstery for ottomans created by jute webbing strips that are woven. This darling table runner by Tara Dennis is also a cute way to use webbing.

Just one more reason why we all love Layla.
Rhonda created the cutest laundry tub skirt.
I have also seen the webbing used for numerous wreath styles, as well as other seasonal touches, like this gorgeous mantle decor created by Jill.
I love the texture on these pillows from BH & G.
Are there any other jute burlap webbing ideas that I have missed?
I am soon leaving for my cousin home in New Orleans.
Laura

You have mail. (Need your address!)
Deborah
Wow ~ that luggage rack was in great shape for the garbage! Love it white. Never would have thought about using webbing for some of the ideas you've shown. That is the great thing about blogs ~ you find so many out-of-the-box ideas!
I have always loved this webbing–these ideas are great!
How wonderful that you'll be visiting with your cousin LINDA (I LOVE her name) 🙂
This was a simply delightful post and of course I had to check out all of the links and you know, reading your blog is dangerous…. I'm not wanting to spend any money right now, because we're going on vacation at the end of March, but… seeing all of these pretties….. SIGH.
Have a wonderful visit! 🙂
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and inviting me to the give away. I actually have your blog saved in my list of favs on my computer. I need to add it to my blog roll so I will remember to look at your new posts. The luggage holder you redid is wonderful. I need one for my other guest room. Have a wonderful time in New Orleans, one of our favorite places to go…Kim
I love how you used the jute webbing on your luggage holder. And all of the other jute projects you showed us are so clever and pretty too!
I hope you have a safe and fun trip and I would love to win some burlap! I've only had macaroons twice ever. Once in Paris, yum!…and then my daughter bought me from for my birthday a few years ago!
Kat 🙂
I love this webbing! Great ideas also!
Thanks for stopping by and inviting me!!
What a good idea to add webbing to make a suitcase holder. Very creative! Thanks for stopping by our blog. Yours looks wonderful..I need to peak around a bit! 🙂
You did such a great job on the luggage holder, Laura. And I never imagined so many uses for the jute webbing. Thanks for sharing the great ideas and enjoy your trip to New Orleans!..Christine
oh the burlap webbing would look fab on some pillows in my house. thanks for the great ideas.
Surely I could get creative with that ! Put my name in the hat!
-Trish
Love these ideas! Thanks for inviting me over!
What an adorable luggage holder! You did a fabulous job!
Where in the world do you find a big roll of jute webbing like that!?
Hi Laura, all these burlap webbing ideas are terrific! The one I like best is the one with the black vintage hooks.
Have a great weekend!
I love your luggage holder! When getting ready for a trip, better to lay your suitcase on this rather than your bed. Happy Travels!
very nice luggage rack… you know they are VERY expensive at the thrift stores… lucky you to get it free!
thanks for visiting my blog and taking the time to leave a comment.

thanks for the giveaway – I really like that woven table runner. Might have to make me one of those.
You are so creative Laura…I would have not given this piece a second look! Thank for sharing the other examples as well!
Karena
Thanks for stopping by my blog! I love the luggage rack! Very nice. Also love the idea that you showed using the webbing to make a placemat!! Would love to try this!
Great idea's! I love your blog!
Thanks for visiting…you have a lovely blog! What fun ideas for webbing…Kim
Hi Laura…I didn't realize the postcard exchange was for more than one ….I think I will just do it with Deborah (Fairfield House)…just don't have enough time for it all. But so glad I found your blog and look forward to future postings…
My mom was an upholsterer and I remember helping her in the shop, using LOTS of webbing. We never would have guessed way back in the 70s that webbing would be cool someday!
Hi there ~ yes, by all means lets do the postcards:) I'll email you my address. Fantastic jute/burlap ideas. I made a fantastic candle wrapped in it a few weeks ago. Possibilities ARE endless.
How about using it like ribbon when you wrap a present? Or making placemats out of it. I think it would be cute to get some old patio furniture and redoing it with the burlap and painting the frame a red.
I would love to win your giveaway. I've always wanted to go to New Orleans. In fact, can I crawl into your suitcase and go with you 🙂
Hugs,
Joanne
Thanks for stopping by my blog, I emailed you the address.
I love give aways, thanks for letting me know about that too! 🙂
Have a great weekend.
😀
Oh my gosh, I've never even HEARD of jute webbing, but now I have a hundred ideas for it running through my head! Love that luggage rack – what a great find! Thanks so much for commenting on my blog and for inviting me to enter your giveaway! 🙂 Have fun in New Orleans!
Are you saying I don't have to go to Paris and get these fabulous Macarons?????? O M G.
I never enter giveaways, really I don't, but I would adore a box of Macarons. I'm dying to put one in my mouth. I have tried to get them from Paris, but they do not ship. : ( I'm in Canada, is that ok?
I'll be sending you my address for the post card exchange gladly.
Have a great weekend Laura and nice to meet you.
Love Claudie
xoxoxoxo

Beautiful ideas..beautiful blog! You sent me a message about the postcard swap and whil trying to start a folder in my email account, I somehow deleted ALL my emails! Like a whole years worth! Yikes – guess it was the big-email-clean-up-police, but they got me good. Will you re-send your info? I'm looking forward to this!

Thank you for giving me all these ideas for jute webbing. I bought a large roll at the Goodwill. Didn't have a clue as to what to do with it. 🙂 Thanks!!
Thank you too for visiting junkblossoms. We appreciate you stopping by. Pat

Love the burlap webbing ideas! This is always such a creative site. Have a wonderful trip.
It turned out nice and I love that it was free! Thanks for sharing all of the other inspiration as well. Enjoy your trip.
I have the same luggage holder, I bought at a garage sale for maybe(?) a dollar. That's a good idea to use the webbing, but more so, thanks for including the color of the paint. I'm going to refinish mine too. Have a good time in N.O. It's been so long since I have been there. I am looking forward to seeing it again through your photos.
Great inspiration! I've used burlap garland on my Christmas tree (loved it!) but I think I'd like to find some of this webbing. It has a much tighter weave. Thanks for the ideas! And for linking up to SNS.
FJ Donna
Some neat ideas. I especially love the belt.
Angie
G'day, Laura ~ What a fun bunch of creative ideas!
New Orleans?! My one of 3 favorite cities in USA. Have a wonderful time, be safe.
Have a wonderful week.
TTFN ~Marydon
It's amazing what creative ideas flow from this cord of webbing!! I would love to try some of them!!
Enjoy yourself in New Orleans!!

What a fun giveaway! Can't wait to see what you bring back.
Thanks for stopping by my blog!
Kate
Awesome…who would've thought all those great ideas from a simple roll of jute webbing?!!! Thanks for all of the fabulous inspiration! …and for the chance at your lovely giveaway!
🙂 T
That webbing is some cute, cute stuff! Amazing all you can do with it.
Have fun in NO & yes, enter me in the giveaway!
I really love the jute webbing – thanks for compiling all those creative pictures. And thanks for stopping by my site and leaving a comment about my guest room…comments make me all warm and fuzzy 🙂
I must–MUST–get my hands on some of that jute webbing. LOVE it. LOVE the suitcase rack. Thanks for sharing!
What great ideas you have! I use canvas drop cloths for all sorts of things and I really think some of that webbing would look really cute as trim on the drop cloths. I'm picturing pillows and curtains made of drop cloths with just trim… hmmm. Maybe I need to pull out the sewing machine!
Such lovely photo's and your Jute webbing is really nice.. I want some…

Good Morning Laura Sweetie…
As always you so inspire me to create. I have to tell you this burlap roll looks like it is going to be a necessity. I must get some. Where did you find yours? I love the pillow that was intwined with it. That would look gorgeous on my leather couch in the LR. A must have for sure.
Please enter me into your drawing. I would love the burlap. I also sure have my eye on that box of macaroon cookies. Oh my goodness gracious. You are a girl after my own heart.
Have a wonderful trip sweetie. Love your bathroom makeover too.
Country hugs and much love…Sherry
who would have thought you could make all that amazing stuff with a simple burlap.
Love the March decor header at the top of your blog. Lilly of the Valley is my favorite- good call. 🙂
I've never used burlap but would love to try something. I'd love love love macaroons. Thanks for the give-away.
Did I miss pillows? I think they're a great way to make generic, inexpensive pillows look special.
They'd look awesome as trim on a roman shade, too.
*sigh* There are too many possibilities and I have far too little time to explore them!
I'm so excited for you to be visiting New Orleans! I sure could use a box of beignet mix or a can of Cafe du Monde's French Roast Coffee : ) Can't wait to hear all about your trip! Have LOTS of fun! ~Destiny
I just love all of the webbing ideas – I have some in my sewing room right now. I'm so glad I came by, I have to make sure to put you on my visit-often list :).
Isn't it funny how one product just catches on and becomes a makeover element for so many things. I love your luggage rack makeover! I bet your neighbor wishes she had it back!
WendyBee
So Creative! This webbing is lovely – and so many uses. I just found you today, but I'll definitely be back!
I love what you did with this luggage rack. It looks great! I also liked all of your inspiration photos. I've been looking for the natural & blue webbing, but can only find the red.
I “sew” love the idea of repurposing things and recrafting – it's wonderful to see the ideas in pictures.
I don't have any new ideas, but I love the ones you shared! Have a great visit in New Orleans!
This was a fun post! I also did a post on using Jute webbing.
BTW, linked you to my favorite blogs listings.
Have a great day!
