Upcycle Old Doily For Earring Display

It's simple, easy and makes a beautiful wall hanging as well as a place to display your earrings.
Doilies can be found at yard sales and thrift stores if you don't crochet your own. The one I used in this photo is about 9" in diameter, including the overhang that made a natural ruffle edging.
Enjoyed the project?
Suggested materials:
- Doily (thrift store or yard sale (or crochet your own))
- Embroidery hoop (Joann's has hoops in several sizes, it's easy to find one suitable for any size doily.)
- Ribbon, artificial flower buds (optional for trim) (my craft stash)
- "hook" style earrings (my own collection)

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
THE OUTER EDGE OF THE DOILY IS FLOPY HOW DO I CORRECT THIS.
Could fabric stiffener be used on the ruffle, outside the hoop to make it stiff? Or should the stiffener be used on the whole doily? I'd like to make this for a Christmas gift. Thank you!
