Abstract

The article focuses on the element of translucency in crafts. Translucency is one of the delightful qualities obtained in some of the arts mystery. In stimulating experimentation with translucency, the teacher will have a need for inexpensive material consisting of crystal tissue papers, plastic wrapping papers, sheer fabrics and papers oiled in old-fashioned ways. Considering the shape and the line, the craftsman may not depend on the intrinsic qualities of his materials as upon their selection and management. Moreover, a translucent window hanging can save a room from glare or lost privacy.
