I left it out and the irises now look like Dutch irises and I am happy. Great work. Love the vase - looks Art Deco to me!

They look so much better now. A photo will always tell you what your eye cannot. Also a few other adjustments. I think they will be OK. I am sure I will use them in a future post.Catherinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05626767881036539940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3518662277111990267.post-20390537002467573762011-06-28T14:52:57.950-05:002011-06-28T14:52:57.950-05:00Your flowers are beautiful, Catherine, and the vas...Your flowers are beautiful, Catherine, and the vase is exquisite!

These look like a challenge that you've successfully risen too, so be kind to yourself. ;o)) <br /><br />The vase could be Art Nouveau, but not sure either!

I also made this kit and also had some problems with the yellow sand as it seems to be a bit gigantic on the leaves.
