Full question:

I have a few of my grandma’s decorative hankies… do you have any ideas on what to do with them? They are blue and yellow and about 12″x 12″.

My answer:

I LOVE hankies!! Here are some ideas for decorating with them:

* You can frame them in between clear glass and hang them on the wall.

* You can run them down the center of a table as a table runner.

* You can tack the four corners and the center of each side around a pillow form.

* I made a lamp out of a purse, by standing a skinny lamp inside the purse and then draping a pair of old glasses, gloves and a hankie over the side of the opened purse.

* You can tack them all together to make a curtain or a valance.

Have fun!
