-- I stenciled the words on the burlap following the tips from here and here by Jennifer Rizzo.
-- For the vase (which I had under the sink because I rarely use vases) I cut burlap into 2" strips and filled the vase half full {loosely}. I then arranged the flowers I had {silk, because allergies keep me from having real ones in my house and I can't seem to keep them alive, anyway!} and tied a pipe cleaner around it to hold it. I then wrapped some burlap around the stems to hide them. As I slowly placed the flowers in the vase I stuffed more burlap in to complete the top portion.
I LOVE how this turned out! Last night we sat at the table while we ate our Apple Crisp dessert!
I think I will look for a couple fall scented candles to put on either side of the vase!
How are you decorating for Fall?

That is such a cute runner! I used to love to craft but it's seemed to have been pushed to the back burner. Perhaps it's time to get started on that again.
