Well, honey, "gilding the lily" means trying to improve something that is already beautiful or perfect. So, when the "gild is off the lily," it means that all that extra effort was unnecessary because the original thing was already fabulous. In other words, it's like putting lipstick on a pig - pointless and a waste of time.

When I've finished painting the box, I'm going to gild the carving with gold leaf.
Celebration.
