Coffee and feed sacks that once only served a utilitarian purpose are breathing new life into home decor as everything from pillows to wall art. Maya*made shares the sack hack, a great way to transform these utilitarian bags into stylish (and still utilitarian) bulletin boards. This is a great way to reuse a burlap sack and to add some vintage charm to your craft room, kitchen, or home office.
