Crochet Doilies

Good Morning All
As I have been doing alot of Shabby Chic Altered items, I thought I would get crocheting again and have been making alot of these.
I do watch out for doilies when I go in the local charity shops but they seem to be very few and far between here.


The beauty of them is that I can make them as big or as little as I like.

It keeps me busy at night while watching TV, as I cannot sit and do nothing.


The one at the bottom, I sprayed with Mica powder in water just to see what it would look like!!!!

You will no doubt see these as they appear on my projects over the coming months.
My hook and cotton will be in my suitcase on Wednesday, keep me busy while in UK.

And here she is - Tess with big sister Hollie

    Super pics of your family! I watch very little TV but I am like you, I find watching TV wastes so much time. I have to be doing something else at teh same time - sewing, crochet etc. Lovely doileys. Christine x

    Hi Wendy,
    oh your doilies are so very lovely.
    Fab idea spraying them with mica.
    I forgot I was supposed to be showing you my boxes on Friday made with my doilies.

    Your photos of your Grand Children are wonderful.
    They look so beautiful.
    I bet you can't wait to see them, as you can't beat a Nanna's cuddle.
    Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
