Hoop Display
I wanted to show you a little DIY project that I whipped up a while ago. I have a collection of beautiful lace doilies and unless I am using them on my dining room table for flair, they sit in my studio collecting dust. So I decided to take one of my favorite doilies and create a jewelry station!
Here are the simple step-by-step instructions:
1. Find a doily that is slightly bigger than the embroidery hoop of your choosing. Stretch the doily across the hoop and tighten. Use clear tape to stick any loose doily ends onto the inside of the hoop. Using glue will damage your doily.
2. For the second hoop, stretch a pretty fabric across and tighten.
3. Hang the hoops with a small nail and use them to display your favorite dangle-y earrings!
There you go...a pretty little jewelry station!
oooh genius! :) love.
Those are so cute! I may well use that idea in my new house. Thanks for sharing!
what a great idea..have heaps of doilies around, collecting dust like you said.
oohhh....I like! I may have to go look for some doilies now.
wow! this is SO smart-- I love it-- you are going to have to show me how, though-- I am such a craft-loser-- but I want to make one!
