#LittleBitsofLace2024

[@Shabbychiccajun]

So blessed to have all those lace scraps ! Love making lace clusters and using lace scraps . ❤❤

[@sallydhondt3974]

I wish I had more lace! Now I'm on the hunt for more. You always have such wonderful videos, chock full of amazing ideas! Thank you so much for sharing your gift of creating!

[@CoriDahmen]

Thanks so much and be sure to look at various sources for lace... old clothing, dresser scarves, thrift stores and estate sales can all be treasure troves 😊

[@gayleagostinelli_ct]

Yes, please, #LittleBitsofLace2024, it is!! Even though I hardly have any lace to work with….and if you believe that, I’ve got some ocean front property in Montana I’d like to sell you! 😂. Seriously though, this sounds like lots of fun! My word for 2024 is “unhoard”, so this will be my way to unhoard my lace collection! It’ll be fun to see your ideas, which I have no doubt will be wonderful! As well as going off on my own tangents. Can you tell I’m excited! Love you, my friend, and wish you all the best in 2024!! 😘❤

[@CoriDahmen]

You? You just make my heart and my face happy. My eyes are all crinkly and my mouth is sporting a huge grin. I adore you, GA. I'm excited for the ways you will undoubtedly encourage and inspire all of us, both with and without lace. "Unhoard" is a fantabulous word and I'm certain you'll do amazing things with your rediscovered treasures. Happy, blessed and wonderful new year to you ❤️

[@BlackDogDesigns]

YAHOOOOOO…I’ve been looking for you to do Little Bits of Lace…love love love ❤️

[@CoriDahmen]

So good to hear that! I hope you find lots of ideas and environment ❤

[@123.ABC.33]

This sounds like a fun project to work on this year. You have a lot of lace but I think I have you beat-I have some of my larger pieces in one of my filing cabinets. It is fun to go through and pick out pieces for different projects.

[@CoriDahmen]

So very cool. I've often thought how fun it would be to do a lace swap... but then again, hard to select the most beautiful bits to send and share! Happy , creative 2024 to you!

[@MissDaisyParsley]

Love this idea! I hope I can follow along! I love creating with lace!

[@CoriDahmen]

Wonderful!

[@joystone6460]

Just wanted to tell you that you had made some needle books with a lot of lace and canvas years ago and they are my favorite needle books ever. Love your style and creativity. I love lace and doilies too.

[@CoriDahmen]

Oh thank you for sharing that ♥️ Happy new year!

[@rhodanicholson5018]

Thank you for this….I am also a lace addict……and my goal is to use from my own stash this year. You are helping me here…….smiles….

[@CoriDahmen]

So great to hear! We love those gorgeous little bits and I know it will feel wonderful to use (and see!) some of them. Happy 2024 to you!

[@NigezzaCreates]

Love this. I found a bag of lace scraps so I will be using these in my journal for January 💜

[@CoriDahmen]

Oh excellent! So happy that you’re joining, Gez. Isn’t it crazy how much fun a bag of lace scraps can be?!!! Happy 2024 to you ❤

[@reneasmith1588]

I'm so glad I watched this! I've been searching for the word I wanted for this year and 'rediscover' is perfect! Thanks for sharing! I need to rediscover ME after some hard times the last few years. ❤

[@CoriDahmen]

Bless you and I hope you love and grow in the process of rediscovering you ❤

[@btracey]

I love your video and inspiration 😊 lace is always so beautiful 😻

[@darleneblackwell6853]

Wonderful idea. I am excited to see where this will lead us.

[@CoriDahmen]

I imagine (hope!) we will go in many fun directions ❤

I am going to join this a few days late. So much fun and I have lots of lace and trim.

[@CoriDahmen]

No time frame or worries! We'd love to have you join as time and interest allow.

[@carolm9451]

Love this idea! 💜 I told myself no more resale shopping until the craft room is completely organized and I use half of the stuff I already have... 😂🤣😂gosh I just make myself laugh, but I am trying to be more selective when resale shopping 🤔

[@CoriDahmen]

Maybe reward yourself... when you use some thing(s) from your organized stash you can treat yourself to a bit of resale therapy 😊

[@CaraBrandonCreations]

How fun!! Such a great idea ! ❤

[@CoriDahmen]

Thank you! 🤗

[@4everpurplecreationslorell659]

I feel so much better knowing Im not the only one who has lace scraps in bins everywhere, Ive already got a few ideas i things to do, its so funny how that works. Looking forward to seeing everyones Ideas.

[@CoriDahmen]

Me too! I’m certain that loads of people have many great ideas that we can all learn from. Glad you’re joining the fun!!

[@lauragaudry3402]

Absurd is exactly the word I would use to describe my laces! In fact I am in the process of culling to share and donate. Cori, to the rescue! A bits of lace journal is the perfect project to start the year off. Hugs and blessings, 🤗❤️🇨🇦

[@CoriDahmen]

Wonderful! And isn’t it crazy how quickly that lace can multiply?! I’m happy to hear that this gave you an idea 😊

Good morning, sweet Joy! Happy, blessed new year to you and yes, I'm sipping my coffee and smiling as I read this 😊

[@donitamoore9748]

Cori it’s a good thing you and I aren’t thrifting buddies as I pick up lace and linens all. the. time. at thrift stores and garage sales. Then I struggle to use them as they are so pretty. Thus I have totes full! Just the inspiration I need to start using them more. Thanks for that shove as I definitely need it. I love using lace in clusters and it’s my go to for mindless creating. Thanks for sharing this challenge! Have a blessed day!

[@CoriDahmen]

LOL. I do too! Hence the bins and spools full to overflowing 😊 I hope this challenge encourages all of us to use our treasures more frequently and in different ways. Bless you and happy 2024!

[@janetbennell9855]

Cori you are one of my most favourite people to watch. I love your aesthetic. So delighted to see you are doing Junk Journal January. I'm all primed and ready to go with it too and would love to incorporate lace in my pages. I have 2 journals I'm going to work in. One is an accordion style (new style for me) and one more traditional and vintage. Stay well in 2024 and thanks for the video.

[@CoriDahmen]

Thank you and yay!!! Please do share what you create as I love being inspired by others. Bless you and happy 2024!

This is going to be a fabulous series and a great way to use up all our little lace scraps. I spent a couple of hours on Saturday sorting out several messy bins of fabric and lace scraps so very happy to have something g fun planned for 2024

[@CoriDahmen]

What a fun way to spend some down time! I hope some of the videos encourage and inspire you to use your lace in new ways 😊

[@tamaradankert5776]

The 1/4" shim or spacer is a fantastic new idea for me. Adding pages to hinges can be so difficult at times. Thanks for the tip ❤😊

Totally needed something to get me back on the horse so thank you for sharing! Happy New Year Cori, to you and yours! Hoping it’s bigger and brighter than the last one! ❤

[@CoriDahmen]

Total small world factor.... I just watched and listened to your latest video and I'm excited for you to list that gorgeous kit in your shop! I love the bits you shared at the end that you plan to recreate using the new kit. I'm carving out time today to make those special bits. Just amen about crafting having to take the back seat lately.... I hope and pray that we're both able to change that trajectory this year. Bless you sweet Mandy!

What a fabulous project…I’m not a lace fan…well don’t really use it…but I have a huge stash of lace, now this could / can be just what I need, your little book has inspired me….probably the black card 😂 thank you so much. Wishing you a Happy Healthy New Year Cori xx

No need to feel dumb Lorie!! There is a definite learning curve with social media. When you share your creations via FB, Instagram or YT ( I know nothing about Twitter, so not sure if it works the same way there) just use that hashtag, #LittleBitsofLace2024 in your title and it will be flagged. That way anyone who searches for posts that fit that criteria will be able to find and see your work 😊
