Vintage Bohemian Wall Hanging
What happens when you take a thrift store doily, hang it from a branch, and add some feathers? You get a vintage inspired wall hanging with bohemian style! I’ve had this crocheted doily hanging in my upstairs gallery wall for several months but decided to give it a little tweak. It already had some boho flare with the fringe at the bottom, but I wanted to enhance it even more and finally did…
This was nothing too fancy, mind you, and 99% of the work was already done for me, which made putting it together super easy. I am always amazed by the skill and talent of people who can crochet like this. Such tiny, intricate detailing! Definitely not in my skill set. But embellishing? Now, that I can do.
It was very beautiful and honestly looked good as is. You can see how I displayed it previously here.
I’m actually in the process of working on a complete bedroom makeover that I will be sharing here in a couple of months. We are going to be moving to the smaller of the two bedrooms and moving the kids to this room so they have more space and room for toys. Then hopefully Josh and I will actually have a peaceful, welcoming bedroom retreat and I can get more toys out of the living room. Win-win. Right now this master bedroom is basically a storage room (aka my art studio that I can’t even use because of the clutter) with our bed in it. But not for long! I can’t wait to share the makeovers of both of these spaces with you, so make sure you follow along with me below, and sign up to get my posts directly in your inbox!

From what I can see in these photos, if you added nothing else it would be perfect! I love the simplicity in these pictures.

Oh my, so pretty! I would never have thought of that in a million years. It could not be more perfect for that spot on your wall.

What an amazing find! Can't say I've ever found a doily like that. So pretty and I really love the way you embellished it.
