Here are a few ways you can make the most of doilies in a delightful way -
* Doilies make delightful ' hats ' for jars of jam.
* A doily bunting is a pretty and eco friendly way to decorate a room or table for a party.
* An old fragile doily can be given a new lease on life mounted in a picture frame. Make sure the background cardboard / paper has enough color to help the doily stand out.
* Do you like a display of soap in your bathroom ? Stand the soap up on end and wrap a doily around the soaps. Threading ribbon or twine through the doily holes will keep the soaps together.
* Doilies can be used as the outer layer of a lavender sachet.
* Made delicate bowls and dishes by mixing PVA glue with a little water. Turn a glass bowl upside down and rub a little Vaseline or oil over the surface. Cover the bowl with your chosen doily. Brush on the glue mixture until completely cover. Allow a couple of hours to dry then peel the doily off.
