My Creative Space - Old Lace and Happiness


This is part of a newly acquired stash of wonderful vintage lace that I just had to share...



The joy of having this lot drop in my lap unexpectedly can only be appreciated by other manic makers, I'm sure. (Isn't that right girls?)




 Can you see the mustard yellow lace? It's a much deeper, yellower colour than the pictures and absolutely fabulous!




The large pieces of white lace are equally impressive but the sheer novelty of the colour does make it stand out.




There are also all sorts of trims in various sizes and designs....Some hand crocheted.




I can't wait to start on these! 
Ah, the possibilities are endless....
