We created this simple, tribal-inspired table runner for Emma's home. With a technique similar to our Heart Blanket DIY, see what different pieces you can create by choosing different colors and shapes! Enjoy...
1.Supplies: Table runner, paint, paintbrush, cardboard, cork, scissors and glue. 2. Begin by cutting out a shape with the cardboard. To create a design similar to ours, one side of your stamp should be a straight line (to be placed against the edge of the table runner). This will be your stamp! 3. Next glue the cardboard onto a cork, creating a handle to make the stamping easy. Allow it to dry completely. 4. Begin stamping all along the edge of the runner, filling in any splotchy parts with a paintbrush. Allow to dry completely before displaying your new table runner (check your paint bottle for dry times).
This project is super easy and can be completed in an afternoon! We'll be back soon with a few snap shoots from Hawaii.... XO. Elsie




very creative!

I have several things currently sequestered in the linen closet that can use both this & the heart treatment!

I love that you made a stamp to make the process faster and easier. I love this idea! It combines rustic country and modern styles together, which I adore.

So unbelievably creative! How do you come up with all these things? And how do you fit/keep them in your home?!
Beautiful runner and it looks fantastic!
