I love all things country, romantic and simple. Though they take a lot of ingenuity, time and patience to make, doilies are just the ticket for decorating country. I look for them in every antique store, craft store and auction I go to. They’re delicate, simple-looking, romantic and easy to work with. Here’s a few ways I use them in my decor:
Use them in the shelves of the entertainment center.
Another design.
Different designs and shapes make it fun.
Place under your antiques.
Cover your shelves.
Dress up a simple lamp.
Gently lay over the outside of your lamps and hang a simple ornament in the center.
Prissy but country style.
Dress up an ordinary table and under a lamp.
Two layers on the back of the recliner.
I’m working on some ideas to incorporate them in some wall art and in my framed items. Aren’t they delicate, fancy and still country???
They look great and it does look country.

I have some both grandmothers and have bought so many for almost nothing at yardsales and auctions years ago. I’ve got some plans to make some wall art with some that have tattered edges or stains. Wish you were able to use them too!

I have some of those too and hope to get back to crocheting them when I retire but that’s a few years away. Glad you like the blog and following me.
