Here is what I have so far for the fg baskets, there will be two fg's and one is 7 and the other one will be 2. I just threw this together tonight because I was tired of looking at everything for it.

Is this too much? Too little? I need opinions! The green ribbon on the handle is a longer handle for them to hold onto. and the flowers are there to cover up where the ribbons meet. I have these little crystal flower that are pink and green too, should i put those on here or would that be too much?? Maybe around the top, or I might save them for another project..hmm.

Well just tell me what you think. Good or bad. You ladies are so creative, I know someone will have an idea!! THanks! Sorry they are kinda blurry, my camera is being stupid today.

Its adorable! I'm not sure what your entire color scheme is - but the ribbons and flowers are so soft and pretty that one thing I would do I think is paint the container white, to soften it a bit. You could add a few of the crystal flowers here and there along the ribbon, but not too many. :D Really cute though, good job!

Okay I like the pails alot. As for the crystals, I'm sure it would look nice around the rim of the pail, but those don't seem like they would fit the scheme of the softer ribbon colors/patterns KWIM?

I'm sure whatever you decide to do is going to look amazing anyways :)

Thanks ladies! I woke up this morning and looked at them and decided I didnt want to put those crystal flowers on them, it would just be too much. I am going to save them for maybe a pen holder or something.
By the way, those little flowers were .89 at walmart:whoohoo: i found them after i searched hobby lobby for about an hour for flowers...go figure!

i LOVE them. if i were playing around with the idea of changing anything i think i might try more ribbon and less silver showing (if there is no silver in your scheme, could clash) however, your right- the flowers would be too much cuz you already have those fabric flowers.. dont want to bring too many diff elements in there.
