How to Print onto Doilies
Printing on a doily isn’t as difficult as it looks. You’ll need to be familiar with the direction on how the paper runs through your printer so you know what side to place up. If you’re not sure, just mark a piece of printer paper from the tray with a pencil and print something. When it’s finished printing, you’ll see if the mark is on the back or front. This will tell you if you need to place the doily face down or face up.
Supplies Needed:
- 8-inch heart-shaped doilies
- Printer
- Printer paper or cardstock
- washi tape or painters tape
- Open up a Word program, or Google Drive and type in your message. Move it down towards the middle of the page. This may take a little trial and error for positioning.
- As shown, tape the doily to a piece of printer paper or cardstock. Make sure the top of the doily is at the top of the paper.
- Place it in your printer facing the way it needs to from the example discussed above. My printer didn’t show the same settings as her photo below.
- If the message is placed where you need it. You’re finished. If it needs to be moved up or down, you can either edit your message document or tape the doily lower or higher, depending on what you need.
- Carefully remove the tape and you’ve got your doily with the words Love You printed in the middle.

- Use your heart template or hand draw a heart on the backside of your patterned paper.
- You will need 2 pieces for each stuffed heart.
- Place hearts together with the pattern facing out.

ok so how charming would it be for a guy (or girl) to give their enamored one a basket of those sweet stuffed hearts filled with chocolates…except one would be filled with chocolate and an engagement ring? 😉
