A flower to brighten your day. I saw this artificial flower displayed in a window of a garden center and it made me smile.

Thank you very much for your encouraging comments and favs.

The backlight brings out the textures of the petals beautifully. What is the material they're made from, Marilyn?

FAV. Love the pov and the background light.
