I have a thing for gift wrap
(and a phobia of large, complicated bows)...
how-to here
And because it just occured to me that December is just a mere 3 months away...
If the doilies were dyed red or pale blue, and placed over white wrapping paper, this technique would really work well for the holidays.
Doilies kinda look like snowflakes, right?
And you wouldn't even need to dress it up with a big, scary bow!
