February Favorites




Okay. In case you haven't noticed, I adore doilies.


What are you going to do?


EVERYTHING in my home looks better sitting on a doily (or under one).


I buy mine at next to nothing at my local thrift store.


Works of art, I tell you. Works of ART.





















So maybe I over do it a bit.


Whatever.

If you must "overdo", why not on doilies????

You really have some lovely ones, Judy! And it's good to see them being used -- not just sitting in drawers being "saved"!

Judy, I also adore doilies. Everything looks better with a doily on it or under it is my motto. You do have some beautiful ones. The one on your chair back is so intricate. It took talented crochet skills to create that one. All of your doilies looked beautiful, not overdone in the least!!

I think your use of doilies is just perfect!

Made many a doily in my time. :0)
Guess you can say I love them too, but I gave most of them away as gifts.
Kado wears them well! ;0)

I agree - definitely works of art.

I enjoy a doily or two...
have some I inherited from my Grandma (quite a few).
I like having them...when they get dusty...I give them a shake or two.
I do not like to dust...live on a dirt road..use wood heat in winter...so that means dust...oh my!
Anyway very pretty arrangements of your doilies...especially on Kado head. 8-)
Take care,
Nancy

I don't think you can use "overdo" and "doilies" in the same sentence! I espcially love the one on the back of the chair.
