I recently made a layout and wanted a really vintage look. As I was walking through one of the discount shops I found a huge pack of rectangular doilies so used them for my layout.
I wanted this layout to record some of the childhood toys I loved, there are lots of small pictures and journalling blocks.
I used long rectangles to cover the background, but edged each one with a paper doily and used 3D foam dots.
I pleated a paper doily for the bottom ruffle and put some lace over the top.
I used a little more to make a doily flower and added some buttons.
I hope you might be inspired to use paper doilies in your crafting.
