Jacqui,
You could always work your own design up on any simple computer
graphics program, print out as many as you want, and have it/them
laminated. I don't know what you'd use for the see-through adhesive,
but clever lace-makers can surely come up with something!

In the 1980s one or more of the UK lace suppliers sold a blue sticker
to fit
inside a car window, with the words "Lacemakers do it on a pillow" and
a lacey
design behind the words. It was about 12 x 2 inches.
Mum had one on the back window of her 1980 Mini Clubman Estate, which I
inherited whan she died a couple of years ago. I have recently sent
the car to a
specialist restorer to have it put back 'as new' and I have realised
how
dog-eared the sticker has become. I have been told that I can
probably get a new
copy transfer made, but this sounds like an expensive option on top of
an
already expensive exercise and we would have to make-up the missing
lace at the
corners. But as far as I can remember back she had this sticker in
the car and as
I am also a lacemaker it seems appropriate for it to still be there.
Can anyone remember who sold these, or even better (miracles do happen
occasionally) if anyone still sells them. Even a photo of one with
the corners
intact would help.
And if I do have to end up having it made, is there interest from any
other
spiders for one of their own; usually with this sort of thing it's the
first
one that is expensive, duplicates are a sensible price.
