Unexpected Texture makes this centerpiece particularly appealing to me. What do you see when you first glance at it? Are your eyes drawn first to the deep rose color of the fresh flowers in front? Then, do you notice the fresh green leaves? Did the small rose colored berries next draw your eye upward to the taller arrangement of the same flowers, in back? The flowers look like they are soft and velvety, the green leaves might even be crisp, coming out of the round, smokey glass vase below. The surprise element is the twiggy metal lantern shape around the vases, enclosing them, yet open - creating space which allows us to focus on the flowers. The hard metal, against the smooth tabletop and softly draped light rose fabric of the backdrop all contribute to my enjoyment of the centerpiece. I also love that there are numerous ways to use the metal lantern shape, which has been named, "Willow Sprig" It is 16.5" tall and 8.5" square, with two places inside for vases, candles, or even small pumpkins! You may like to see the way two centerpieces look on a long table, with pillar candles.
