My veiling story, how to veil for mass, and why veil in the first place:

Great idea. I buy the lace at the fabric store. I also buy some trim, cut the lace in a triangle (sort of), and hand-stitch the trim. I've made three and going on my 4th. I did make a mistake with one because the lace was too stiff, so buy lace that is free-flowing for sure. It's nice to say a prayer while hand-stitching as well. If you can. Remember, tradition tells us that Our Lady was a seamstress. Blessings.
Thank you for your lovely comment! I have since also made a two mantillas from new lace fabric, one trimmed and one untrimmed. You're right - the flowiness is very important. I still need to add a little comb to mine, as they're very slippery! I didn't know about this tradition about Mary, though I did see pictures where she's sewing. It would make sense though, considering the patience needed for sewing!

What great idea! I’ll be on the lookout for lace when I’m thrifting.
Good luck!
