I made these!

I saw directions for these doily bowls on the Free People Blog. It looked really easy! I decided to give it a shot last weekend. I bought some pre-made doilies at the craft store (they are less than $5 each) and then soaked them in Stiffy (which is a word I don't recommend goggling without safe search on). Luckily I googled it for you! You can get it here or at your local craft store. After the doilies were completely soaked, I laid them across a variety of objects to see how each would turn out. Bigger bowls made way better dishes than smaller bowls or glass jars. Below are my two favorite results. 

1. White doily over a large cereal bow. 

2. Cream doily over a large canning jar.

I was very impressed with my success here. Now I'm keeping my eyes out for doilies at goodwill and antiques shops so I can make additional bowls.
