I personally think that if they have come out well, then why not get a large frame and display them in there - I have a fantastic piece of antique honiton which I have over my bed - for anyone who thinks that to frame a piece of lace is to put it in a coffin then you haven't spent a week in bed ill just reading and every now and there looking at that lace and admiring the work on it. Even better when you are admiring your own work. Failing that - you could always give them away as presents!
