Paint them up,
flip them over and press them on paper.
Simple and so pretty! |
We thought that
the print would transfer easily by rolling with a brayer. We found the
children were not strong enough to do that well.
We found the best
way to transfer the print was to place newspaper on top and rub hard.
This would make
Grandma proud! Lovely prints bring new life to the old, unloved doily!
And we do appreciate the handmade labor of love from women of the
past who made these lovely doilies that once brightened their home.
