More doilies
You must all think I'm totally doilie crazy.
Well I am, and proud of it.
I have been dying to show you all these pictures but had to wait until it was published in Country Living.
And now that they are out, I can share my doilie fantasies with all of you out in blog land.
The back story is that I bought a box of old doilies on ebay and started to make different things with them.
Showed it to the editors at Country Living, they loved it and I turned it into a craft story that you can find in april's edition of Country Living.
So, please enjoy my doilies.
(Will post some more later).

I understand being doilied out, but I've been inspired by your posts. I have so many bits of old lace pieces both found and inherited that I'm going to use them instead of simply admire them. Thanks!

Really beauteous. Now I want my own doilies. I also want to look like that model with the doily hair - sigh.

That curtain somehow manages to look undoilylike. It almost looks like a natural phenomenon, like bark. This was an "Oh, why didn't I think of that?"
