 I'm sure some will hate the lost petals. But it really needs some pink in that corner, I think. So, there they are. :)

If I had only turned that middle slice upside down I would not have those glaring reflecting spots... *sigh* But, when I realized my error and then tried to reassemble it all (it's put together with spikes and the middle column hollowed out for the stems), it wouldn't go back together properly, so I had a glass of wine and forgot about the spots.

It was much easier that way. *grin*

If they bother you, I suggest you have a glass, too. *grin again*

I love it, Lydia! I wish for your sake it was me handing out the awards. This one would have definitely been in the top 3. :)

Unusual, but interesting. I think it just needs a shoehorn to make it complete.
