Hi All. I saw the pattern for this in a Martha Stewart Mag a few years back (yes, I save them!) and decided to make one as a dedication to my dear friend.
Mollie passed away a year ago July and left the contents of her craft room to me, including these paper doilies that were her grandmother's.
I used over a hundred of them and battery operated "teeny" LED lights.
I gave it to Mollie's daughter and her husband so they would have something of her in their home at Christmas. (Last year they got my first quilt ever!) I figure if the doilies lasted this long, they will be fine.
I bought one of those neat, rubbermaid plastic wreath containers for it, too. Hangs on the wall and out of the way. Michael's had them for $20 on sale but I got mine at Target for $8.99!!
