Black Allium
Update: I got home from work today and it was 74 degrees outside. A beautiful day to finish painting the allium. Now it's ready when I am. I wish I had some orange spray paint. TWT mentioned that they might look neat for a Halloween centerpiece. I will have to remember that for next year.
While I had the can of black spray out, I painted some of the allium skeletons and the branches that were out on the woodland table. The branches had been sitting outside all summer and needed a fresh coat.
I am sure the allium heads will be finding their way on to the dining table in different centerpieces during the winter. I already have them in mind for a black/peach table.
What a great idea Zoey. Yes it would be a great winter accent but I also see it in a terrific halloween/autumn display or something magical and glittery for new years eve. I'm going to go to my garden now and try and think out of the box. LOL. Thanks for the inspiration. TWT
