I made this for someone’s Thanksgiving dinner and I like it.

I think I’m really into reds these days. I found these dark dusty red football mums and love them. I don’t love mums, but I have a secret love for certain colors of football mums.

This is the back—or the front—I’m not sure. The arrangement will be on a bar that divides two rooms and will be seen from all sides. I couldn’t decide which side I liked better.

The callas. It was a challenge, but I had to get something bright in there. I don’t like a lot of traditional “fall” colors, but it’s a fine line between sophisticated and severe and this is Thanksgiving after all. (NB: I was particularly impressed by some non-traditional takes on fall/Thanksgiving florals that came up on my Google Reader in the last few days, in particular this one, this one, this one, and this one)

I just love this image/color combination:

Have a great T-day.
