    Uses for Vintage Doilies

    This blog post shows vintage doilies being used to make dresses and lamp shades! Very interesting.

    I actually like the lampshades! Don't know anybody that would actually wear the dresses!

    There was a project on the Pintrest site using canning jars & the tall ones with lids. You glue several of the doilies to the jar, whatever fits, & use it for a light withn candles. I used one of the sq ones & put 4 small doilies inside. with a battery ta lite in it. I put blue colored glass pieces in bottom. Looks nice & you can dust it since everything is inside.tea lite. Sorry
