Backlighting with neon (no exposed tubes) can make wall hangings seem to float, and mixes well with other lighting. There are really amazing colors of glass you can mix with the gasses to get unique colors, too.

There's a great (exposed) neon color you can achieve by filling cobalt blue glass with red neon gas. It's a glowing magenta with a blue to purple outline that makes your eyes water. You have to see it in person to get the whole effect. Hypnotic.
