I have purchased burlap in fabric stores ( I use it for another craft)
but I have also purchased large quantities of brown rice that came in a
burlap bag lined with plastic.

Warrior Woman - where can you find burlap? All the bags in the feed
stores
around here are woven plastic!

I'm starting to use old socks in earth tones (my boxes are small Aeros,
so
they'll fit).

Home Depot/Lowe's/Home Improvement Stores

In the Gardening Section.

Folks use it to wrap shrubs and such so that they do not get
misshapen by snow, also to use as an anti-weed layer in their garden.

You can get a whole roll that will last you forever for about $4.

Hope this is helpful.

Funny things happen when the spouse in the horticulture field looks
over your shoulder reading notes.
