Lace is everywhere this wedding season...and not just on dresses! How gorgeous would some of these things be as wedding decor...they add such a vintage and romantic touch...and most are made out of simple dollies...

Are there instructions anywhere on how to make the lovely lace rose? I would love to make my bouquets like this!

I can't believe you blogged about doilies! I have recently become obsessed with them and want them all over my friend's vintage wedding. Perfect as always maria!

I'm not a big lace person in general but those are really neat, especially the flower.

Thanks to Courtney F. for sending the instructions to us on how to roll a doily into a rose:
1. Fold a round doily in half, then roll it to form a cone. Crocheted versions yield the best results
2. With an elastic band, secure its base
3. Fold, then roll a second round doily around the first, again securing with an elastic band
4. Embellish the bloom with millinery leaves, slipping the stem into the elastic band
5. Use as a corsage or a gift topper.
