Vinyl sayings on burlap placemats

Several years ago I saw some pretty darn cute place mats at a local store. I didn't buy them and sort of regretted it. You don't ever do this do you? I'm sure I'm the only one.
I found out that they were available from One Kings Lane, but once I went to find them, they were no longer available to purchase. Story of my life.
So, I made some of my own, because that's what a good cheap person does with not a lot of budget but a whole lot of style.




I had some of my favorite Expressions heat transfer vinyl on hand {I always have black and white HTV on hand because you can almost always find a use for it} and found a font that I liked {I used the Rockwell font}. 

Don't forget to reverse your image in your Silhouette design software. Cut out your design and iron it on to the burlap place mats that you cut that are 20x14. I made a set of 6 with 6 different sayings.

These place mats are not spill proof. {perhaps that's why they are no longer available?}, but they are pretty darn cute.  You can easily wash HTV but burlap is another story. So keep that in mind. You may want to pick a different material to make your place mats out of if you think you may need to wash them often.

They were fun to create and will be a great conversation starter on your table.  Enjoy!
