Some domestic problems are hard to solve. How often have you wondered how to get those pesky Chateau Lafite stains out of your white cashmere carpet? Or the most efficient way to clean your priceless antique crystal chandelier?
Most common of all - how do you stop your freshly laundered doilies from shrinking and losing their shape?
Reader - we have a solution.
Simply purchase a vintage Pinabord Doily Stretcher and misshapen doilies will be a thing of the past. Place your doily on the board, use the highly mathematical grid to pin it into the correct shape , spray on some starch, et voila!
(NB. Strictly for domestic doily use only. Antimacassar stretching should only be attempted by qualified professionals.)
