I wonder with your black flowers if it's not that they're "crafty" but they are strong enough visually that they take away from the leaves etc. Not really a negative, just perhaps a different effect than what you envisioned when you began.LINDA from Each Little Worldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02380944603357066650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1018965493805276234.post-8087289930841633222016-10-24T09:27:21.147-07:002016-10-24T09:27:21.147-07:00The wreath looks brilliant - and the black flowers...The wreath looks brilliant - and the black flowers DO look really effective.

I love what you did in revamping the vase too - those Darlingtonia add a bright but faintly sinister touch, perfect for the season.
