Lacey Finds


I have always been fascinated by lace. I even contemplated learning how to make it at one stage. Indeed, one day I will try and learn how to make it, but until time becomes an limitless option in my life, learning to make lace has been placed on the 'yet to do' list.

That doesn't stop me from admiring all of the other talented crafters out there who manage to incorporate lace into their designs. Whether it be the physical item or the feeling it evokes, lace can be found in many places.  I did a quick search on my favourite handmade online shopping site - madeit.com.au - and came up with the following items.


Each of these items show the delicateness of lace, but also it's versatility - from inspiring designs for paper cut art, to becoming a pattern for a porcelain bowl or even just being used to adorn the head of someone precious - lace can be used as inspiration for many beautiful items.

Have you used lace as inspiration for any of your designs? I'd love to hear how you've done it.

Until next time...Cheers!
