Creative Corner Display

Here is my new display at the Creative Corner in Holland. I was able to get this great window space when another vendor moved out. I had walked down to Harvest Antiques to browse for something I might use as display fixtures and hoping not to have to spend too much money. I spotted these asparagus crates and thought -- perfect! Throw some fish net over them and they take on a nautical look, which is a perfect backdrop for all my Float items. $5 a crate -- can't go wrong!

Nautical 4th of July Red White and Blue Table Runners

 
I'm back on my obsession with burlap! I've created a couple styles of table runners that I thought would be a fun way to brighten up any summer buffet. Above I wove together blue and red pieces of burlap then appliqued hand cut stars the full length. Below I wove some dock line the full length of the runner to create a center on to which I appliqued hand cut burlap and ticking anchors. They are time-consuming but I just love to work with burlap!
