Make Your Own Grain Sack Ribbon
I love the look of grain sack ribbon so I made my own!
Here is an easy way for you to make grain sack ribbon yourself!
I'm including my Amazon affiliate links so you can access the products I used for this project.
I began with washed and bleached painter's drop cloth.
I cut a slit into the edge of the fabric making a 3" section
and I tore it all the way down the length of the fabric.
I removed the strings and was left with a long fringed ribbon,
don't worry about the fringe, it stays without unraveling.
Using a paint stick marker I drew a thick line and then 2 thinner lines down the center of the ribbon.
I love the perfect imperfect grain sack look.
On another ribbon I wrote the word "joy" using a gold paint stick marker and used this one around my tree at Christmas.
You can probably thing of a zillion uses for this ribbon.
My favorite use is for hanging wreaths.
I use it everywhere.
