The vases are all different shapes, but the colours are very close and I think that really helps the whole thing stay balanced. It doesn&#8217;t just look like I grabbed three random containers; it feels thoughtful and intentional. I love the repeated triangular shapes formed by the flowers and vases so much I chose to display it on a mirror, to echo that repetition even further. It also adds a watery feel that encourages the cool fresh summer vibe I was hoping to achieve. Overall, I&#8217;m very pleased with this one.<\/p>\n<p>That wasn&#8217;t initially the case though! Just as a reminder that sometimes, things don&#8217;t work out and your best course of action is to come back later. <a href=\"https:\/\/moonblossom.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/07\/triptych.jpg\">Here was the original arrangement and photo I took<\/a> yesterday, where the flowers were too crowded by foliage and you couldn&#8217;t even see the tall vase. I debated about posting it as-is, but I was unhappy with it and I&#8217;m glad I tried again. Also, if you&#8217;re like me and you&#8217;ve got trypophobia just be warned that photo has a particularly pock-marked side of the really earthy vase exposed. That might be part of why it displeased me so much!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today&#8217;s arrangement is a very simple, clean, and summery trio of clematis in serene celadon vases.
