So these are pictures of a topiary I did for my sister-in-law Cami and her family when her father passed. You can't really tell the colors, because the flash took made it all bright, and the dark pictures didn't turn out. I seriously need to learn how to use my camra, or spend the money to get a nice one and then learn to use that one. But these mini carnations are a very deep dark red- one of my very favorite colors! In hindsight, I would have used a different container/ pot, but I was short on time.
What is nice about this piece is that the flowers and color I chose will dry gracefully and still look really good in a month or two, and can be used as decoration around the house! So I see this as a very valuable gift item!
Above is a close up, I jazzed it up a bit with the wire. I love doing little things like that to make it more interesting and different. If the recipient doesn't like it, it's loose enough to take off.
