I've always loved those neutral doily table runners...but for Spring, I decided I wanted a mix of pretty pastel colors, like a garden of flower blossoms! Click HERE for the full tutorial...and other project ideas for your vintage doilies, as well!
The first step was raiding my stash of vintage doilies- some plain, some already colorful!
And then it was time to break out the fabric dye- in pretty Spring pastels.
After following the instructions, I ended up with some lovely, cheerful doilies- I'm so sorry I didn't iron them for the photo!!
And then, I simply laid them across my table, overlapping here and there, and using a needle and thread, adding a few stitches to keep them together!
How fun and easy is that?? It brightens up the whole room...and I can't help but smile when I see it. :)
And if you're looking for fun way to display vintage doilies, this is my most popular doily idea ever!

Ma'am, you dont have to be sorry for anything.
Your work is beautiful, ironed or not. And I love the table itself. It all fits

Love this. I have so many doilies from my Grandmother and Mom. Now I can display them! Thanks for the idea. Also, how can I save this to my Pintrest lists for great ideas for the home?

Just a thought. Could they be tie dyed to get the colors? Rubber band off the areas and dip them?
