Pretty Like a Web

A childhood friend crocheted this table topper for me as a wedding gift. Now I use it for a curtain on the basement door window just because the sunlight is so pretty when it comes through it, and in the winter when the sun is low it makes pretty shadows--both the branches on the curtain and the lace on the walls. Someday I'd like to dye it with some sort of natural dyes, like here http://riihivilla.blogspot.com/ I found this beautiful blog all about dying with plants and lichens and mushrooms.
