Do you have any
of these European
flax or hemp grain sacks?
I don't know why
but I love them so much.
Simple. Lovely. Textured.
I could have stacks and stacks
of them just sitting around.
I know they have probably
fallen out of
the crazed trendiness
they have had
for the last few years,
but I don't really care.
They still make me smile.
On the dining table on the patio last spring. |
A lot.
On the chairs in my office. |
On the island in the kitchen last fall. |
Wish these were mine. |
Last summer on the patio. Do you love them too? |

I don't have any, but I do love the look of them. So beautiful. YOurs are gorgeous, plus I love the way you display them on tables, the island and in pillows. Fabulous. Hugs, Marty
They make me smile too. Love em. I've had some pass through my hands that I wish I'd kept.
I don't have any, but they are lovely. They are adaptable wherever you use them. Thanks for sharing.
I do love them. Sadly, I have only one...a GW find-some demented person gave it away! I love the down-hominess of them. xo Diana

Love vintage grain sacks & collect them whenever I see them. Great post! ---Ron
I love them and make all sorts of things using them, including jewelry! :) Leslie
I love these over the burlap sacks, Alison. I'd grab these up in a heartbeat if I saw them for sale.
Yes, I do and I snatch them when I find a good deal on them. The prices are crazy. The last one I bought was only $36.
I love them too! I even like how they smell.

Alison, count me in as one who loves these too. I don't have any, but wish I did. I like the way you have used yours. Love the black ones. Your kitchen island and outdoor space are both lovely. ~ Sarah
Alison, yours are gorgeous.
No I don't have any yet. Keeping my eyes open when we are out antiquing.
Do you want to send any my way.lol
I don't have any, and would like one for a kitchen table runner, but rarely see them here. The few I've seen are either made into pillows, or are very coarse, almost like burlap.
Love yours in the office and on your patio.

LOVE vintage grain sacks! I only have one but I'am on the lookout for one for my breakfast room table. Have a Happy Mothers Day Alison!!
I do love them too. Who cares if they are as popular as they once were or not? My style of decorating is what makes me smile when I walk through the front door. You have done a wonderful job displaying your treasures. Have a Happy Mother's Day!!
Big Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
Alison...they are still very popular...selling like crazy at the antique fair...I bought lots of homespun few from my friend who deals in antique linens....yours are beautiful and that patio?...that patio is gorgeous...!!
Happy Mother's Day!!
I love them and I don't really consider them a fad...more of a classic. I don't have any but I've always thought I would like a couple of pillows. I like the uses you've come up with.

I don't have any but could use them if I did. They are so versatile. Now, PLEASE show us your patio!!! The picture of it is making me swoon. Please share some more:):) XO, Pinky
Of course I love them...they are lovely. Your chairs are great. Thanks for sharing. Di@cottage-wishes

You have an office? I'm SO jealous!!!
I love those sacks. It's like I was a sack fan back when being a sack fan wasn't cool. They wouldn't even have to do anything. Just sit at my house and look fabulous.
