\"ikandi-lattice-lace\"<\/a>The really cool thing about translucent canes is that whatever is set behind them shows through, allowing for all kinds of possibilities with imagery and depth. The cellular cane conversation started Monday<\/a>\u00a0now turns to how to apply translucent canes created more for textural application than for the images embedded inside.<\/p>\n

Ivy Niles<\/a>\u00a0has got this particular idea down as can be seen here in what she calls a translucent lattice lace cane. Adding the mostly opaque flower patterns into the mix allows for the canes to add their\u00a0own variation in layering to whatever they are applied to so the flowers sit ‘up’ on the surface while the translucent squares frame small sections of the layer beneath. The cane slices from this could be set corner to corner for a regular and consistent pattern or, due to the outer translucent edges, can be blended seamlessly into other patterns or can be applied as accent textures on corners or edges.<\/p>\n

Ivy has several examples of how to apply this particular cane on the listing for it on Etsy (sold long ago, I’m afraid), so you can pop over to see this here or just rummage for other ideas in\u00a0her Etsy shop<\/a>.\u00a0\u00a0She also\u00a0shows off more of her goodies on her website<\/a>.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Inspirational Challenge of the Day: <\/strong>Today, accent, decorate or hand mark just the edges and corners of a piece. Let this kind of design suggest a focal point or maybe it won’t need a focal point but rather the texture may come together to create a pattern that becomes the focus and interest of the piece. Don’t judge what you’re doing. Just let yourself go and have fun.<\/p>\n
