No fabric stiffener? No problem! Here’s a different way to make a crown using vintage lace!
I’m stash-busting, meaning that I am on a mission to use up what I have! I love the tiny lace crowns I’ve seen in the blogosphere, and while I have a nice stash of old lace, I didn’t have any fabric stiffener. Mod Podge to the rescue!
I started with a crochet lace collar because I thought the width and shape would look good for a crown.
1. Place the lace on freezer paper.
2. Apply a generous application of Mod Podge (I used the Glitter formula).
3. Flip the collar over and apply MP to the reverse side.
