A Quick & Pretty Way To Keep Pests at Bay from Drinks
Dig through your stash of doilies~ be they vintage or new. Select smaller sizes to fit over the top of a glass.
Tatted doilies are perfect as the stitching allows you to add a fun straw to your drink.
Voila! The perfect way to keep pests at bay!
Enjoy your day!
I’ll be back tomorrow with a sneak peek of our new Texas home.

Your pretty lace covers for your drinks are so pretty. I have seen the pitcher covers with glass beads sewn onto the edges to weigh them down in case a breeze blows up. Pretty and practical!
Hope you are enjoying the Labour day holiday! 🙂
This is the time of year when flies present a problem in the country. What a pretty and great way to deal with them. Thanks for the idea!
How lovely and inventive, too! It makes the drinks look so good and inviting, too!
Great repurpose of vintage doilies! Hope you had a great weekend and got to relax some!
Now i have to find me some doilies! Love this idea!
Now I never thought about that, Laura. Sounds like a good idea! Susan
Believe it or not, I got rid of all the doilies that my mother had as well as the ones I had. Just could not use them for decor, however, this is a great idea!
I've tried placing a straw through a cupcake liner ~ works well with the right size glass.
