Tips for developing a lace-based theme:

1. Remember, lace decorations don’t have to be expensive. Paper Lace Doilies attached to a row of String Lights look just as pretty as pricier decorations.
2. Scour craft shops for lace pieces, or look online to get the best deals.
3. Experiment with cheaper alternatives: plastic lace overlays that look like lace tablecloths, for example, or lace runners instead of entire lace tablecovers.
4. Try extending the theme by creating the look without using lace. Laser cut invitations with a filigree pattern can be lacy-looking but not as expensive as those wrapped in actual lace.
5. Take on simple DIY projects like lace-covered votive holders for a fun and inexpensive way to build the theme.
