While this photo was courtesy of google images and is, I believe, a vintage fabric, we offer hundreds of fabrics that will compliment a craftsman home. Take a look at P. Kaufmanns Baranco or Robert Allens Delillo or Sindhi. Good luck with your search and thanks for visiting our blog.

Check out sites like diynetwork.com or dannylipford.com for ideas on how to hang burlap. I believe adhesives like simple starch work well. One option might be to purchase burlap covered homasote panels to hang in below your wainscoting. Perhaps a wallpaper that resembles burlap may also be easier than the real thing. Your restoration sounds beautiful. Keep us posted on your progress.

We love arts and crafts and are restoring a craftsman bungalow. We are planning on putting the style of wainscoting with vertical wood stiles between burlap covered panels and topped with a horizontal plate rail with corbels. What type of burlap type fabric do you use on the wall panels? Do you treat the fabric prior to installation? Where can I find instructions on how to do this? Any advice you can give me is greatly appreciated….Thanks…Kim

This style has certainly withstood the test of time and many people continue to be “smitten” not only by its simplicity in design but the history that surrounds it. Glad you enjoyed the post.
