Quart sized mason jars can be used for fresh cut flowers (dahlias look great in these!). They work great combined together with different sized jars as centerpieces and extra decor. The pint sized jars also make great drink glasses! Here is a great tutorial on how to make: Burlap & Lace Mason Jars

These silverware holders would be so easy to do! Buy burlap in bulk and sew them yourself or hire someone to sew them for you. You could add the accents yourself.

Such sweet favor bags! Brown paper bags and doilies.

6. Invitations & Stationary:

Invitations and other wedding stationary can be very easy and inexpensive to make if you are somewhat computer savvy (remember the burlap textured background in word?) . However, you do need some great fonts. Here is a link to some great free fonts: Fab Fonts

It may seem like a lot of work to hang burlap on the chairs so you may want to consider doing every other chair or just the bride and grooms chair. Hay bale seating is a unique and affordable seating option for ceremonies. You can lay large fabric rectangles over them or tie them for a more finished look.
