1. The very first step is to measure the burlap table runner and decide where you want to place the plaid ribbon. To do this, measure from the outside edge on both sides. You can choose the distance just be sure to keep it consistent.

3. Then, trim the ribbon to the correct length with scissors on the ends.

That’s it! Add this great Christmas table runner to your home decor.

Table Runner Hack

Here’s the secret.

When you buy a burlap table runner, all you have to do is sew your favorite ribbon to it! That’s why this is one of my favorite Christmas crafts. It takes basically no time at all.

If you don’t have a sewing machine, you can attach the ribbon to the burlap with hot glue or superglue. Sewing looks the best, but other methods still work just fine.

Decorate With Plaid For Christmas

Plaid is a classic print that never goes out of style. You can always find something with red plain at Hobby Lobby, Michaels, or your favorite local craft shop.
