{Trendy Tuesday} Doilies, Doilies Everywhere!

When is the last time you used a doily?

Probably not recently. Maybe never?

Yeah...I'm with you.

They just aren't something I've ever used. Ever.

Until now.

Doilies are making a big comeback. Like, a really big comeback.

You can use them in all sorts of extraordinary ways.
