doily bunting...
i know this is not a new one...i've raved about my love of doily bunting a
ol'blog o'mine...
but it's one to share again & again...as it makes a room happy, sweet...a little of the old-time-when-
the world-was-simple kinda decorating...
& for me- it says ol"Blighty all over...
anything that reminds me of our life in the English countryside is a heart-tugging winner in our little
house by the beach...
you know what you need gals...
paper doilies...{i found a stack of them in the gorgeous-ness that is PULP }
a ball of good ol'fashioned hardware store string...cheap & white...
a sewing machine...
simply fold in half over the string & sew...
don't attempt to sew the doilies & then thread them onto the string...
this will send you
frustration...
just fold over the string as you go along & sew in straight stitch...
hang generously ALL over the house...
make it monday
short & oh so very sweet
old fashioned & fresh
the perfect combination
see ya tomorrow for a *virtual coffee*
love you to join me
we're in the garden- a little *Great Gatsby* like- for pots of tea
&
a proper *how's your week* catch up
xoxox
Lovely. Bummer it is my first day back at work, sob, or I would be whipping up these babies and hanging them all over the house.

ReplyDeleteYour doily bunting is just lovley. I actually made a batch of doily bunting the other day as well, for my bedroom window..though I must admit I was too lazy to sew them, and just used mini peg clips instead. They sure do brighten up a window though.
