30 Lovely DIY Lace Projects

Anjelika Temple · May 26, 2013

Last week was all about beautiful wooden objects, and the rustic charm they can bring to any home, workspace, or dining table. Today, we’re turning our attention to another sort of ethereal, old-world material. Lace!

And we’ve got news for you. Lace isn’t just for wedding dresses and lingerie – it’s actually an awesome, stylish material that can be used to upgrade your garden, jazz up your boots, or add a little flirty femininity to a pair of denim cutoffs. Here are 30 lovely projects to get you inspired to DIY with lace.
