The lace is here

I was so happy to receive a soft little package yesterday in the mail from www.lace-mart.com I stitched it  up in the quiet of the evening and now have this:

I like the look of the skirt on the washer.  It just makes me happy and feels right to have my maidservant all dressed up, but the elastic in the casing isn’t working out.  It stretches and sags down.  Any ideas to attach it better?

    I would try a little sticky back velcro. It would help to add a little extra support, but isn’t permanent.

    HOT glue it! It peels right off if you ever need to take out. Or you could use velcro but, I’m guessing you have hot glue right now in your house!

    Use the velcro – you can then detach the skirt to wash when needed. Like Mary, I did this for a bath sink and it held up beautifully for 5 years, hiding an ugly cabinet. Finally replaced the sink/cabinet combo with a pedestal sink but kept the skirt because I LOVE the fabric (and I can repurpose it!!)
