Cloth doilies can be found at most fabric stores and paper doilies are usually readily available at supermarkets and dollar stores, which means you shouldn’t have too much trouble locating your materials.

Of course, you could always opt for all black lace instead - if you’re looking to go a little racy with your lacy.
