Do you realize that mantillas and chapel veils go for, like, $15, $20, $30 online?!?!
Do you realize that you can make them for less than $5 each (the most expensive part is the trim/edging), and less than 10 minutes of labor apiece?
I mean, I'm all for a variety of head-coverings and scarves for women in church, but the [nylon] lace is actually the cheapest option and easiest to work with (it's transparency gives it a high tolerance for lines not being perfectly straight, etc)...
There's a bigger story here, obviously; I'll explain more later. I have to remain rather obtuse for now, but maybe you can already guess.
But I think there is an obvious business opportunity for anyone who wanted to drive down the cost (or for parishes that wanted to produce them in bulk...)

You are welcome to disagree with me and with each other. Civil debate is a valuable way to test and exchange ideas. Do keep it civil, though. Any really offensive craziness will either be held up as an example of What We Don't Stand For, or deleted.
