Dear Leslie,
Here is a link to some of the pictures that I have manipulated to show how the easy way to paint lace and satin would be accomplished. I did this very quickly on Photodeluxe so please realize that I cannot do this justice in 15 minutes.
Please click on the link below: Remember the 1st two steps would be in acrylic paint and the rest in oils.

I hope that this helps explain an easy method for your quandry.
