Yes had thought of that but wouldn't I brush some on before to make a moist surface area? Do not want the burlap to look wrinkled. Hope to start this fall. Great ideas.... Sent from Yahoo! Mail on Android |

| Greetings, If you wanted to, you could just nail the piece of burlap to the shingles as you dip them in the paint/sand/portland mix. Start at the bottom and work your way up doing an overlap like a roof. It would seal the house from drafts, being water proof and give you a paintable surface.
