framed design using bare birch branches (glue spider webs intertwined in the branches?) "mounded" center inside frame (ala "hill" )
that's about all my brain can handle at this moment (still doing financials from our Spring Design Show).........

Here are some ideas don't know what you have or what you can get but- might spark something. I'm on corsage overload too...
Black and white flowers... obligatory OTH colors, of course
Pearl strands, white ostrich feathers, black curly willow, white anemones with black centers, martini glass with black sand/glass "ice", faux diamonds (the big paperweight kind), opalescent glitter (just a splash or two), black double faced satin ribbon....and that's all I got :>

I did one recently that everyone seemed to like. I used a black vase, dark purple flowers, iris, hydrangea's, dalhia's, etc. I then made a flower out of dried prunes, I took heavy wire taped 3 of them together, and glued a prune on each wire stem. It made a 3 petal flower, you can glue a suppository in the middle to make a center, I didn't on this one, as I didn't think that was very tasteful, funny maybe, but not what the customer was looking for . I worked those into the arrangment. I also added black party horns, black mylar curling rib, and a flag that said, "Aged to Perfection"
It really was pretty, believe it or not. The person recieving the flowers, loved it. She called to ask the price and placed an order for the same thing next month going to a friend of hers.
Nothing to unusual here, but it was tasteful.
