I finally made something that I have had pinned to my Pinterest "DIY" board for almost 9 months...this table runner made from doilies! I saw the original here:

and thought I would make it for my kitchen table. Well even though I have quite a few doilies, it wasn't enough, so I scaled it down and made a smaller runner for my coffee table in the living room. I just arranged (and re-arranged) the doilies until they were in a pleasing pattern, and then pinned and hand stitched them together where they overlapped. Some day I could always add to it and make it larger for my kitchen table. I also did a "makeover" on this cute Easter bunny I found at TJMaxx this week...
He started out with a blue crepe paper ruffle around his neck, and I just changed it to a silk ribbon and added a soft pink flower from an old hat. Now maybe HE is a SHE! Either way, the bunny is now more my style!
