Crafting with Jute Webbing
This is an easy little pouch made from jute webbing to hold seasonal greenery, twigs, and a LED taper candle with timer.
I hung my little jute webbing pouches in my kitchen windows.
I purchased one yard of 3 1/2" wide jute webbing at a local craft shop. (This will make several)
I purchased two 4" LED grubby taper candles with timers at a local prim shop. Fold the webbing to make a pouch allowing the candle to poke out of the pouch. My tapers were 4" so I cut off about 7" of webbing.
I glued both sides together with this fabric glue. I placed a heavy book and a couple of bowls on top until the glue was dry and set. I didn't fold the top edges under as I thought it would be too thick.
I poked a wire through the webbing pouch top on each side. The length of the wire depends on where you are hanging it. I chose to hang it around a double hung window latch.
I curled the wire on the back so it wouldn't pull through.
I stuffed the little pouch with birch twigs and juniper greenery from my yard and stuffed the little candle in the front. I then tied a piece of jute in a bow around the pouch.
You could use any type of twig or greenery, real or faux.
I liked them in the windows.
