I love the shape of the design. I love the natural elements. It is creative and well thought out. I think the glittery green container takes away from natural feeling of the bamboo and grass.

Love the shape & contrast of the bamboo with the red red roses. Very pretty

I like the design really well. I would have loved to see this in another container, something more natural to go along with the bamboo. Great job!

Container needs toned down some, blast with glossy wood tone? Pretty, though.

Great concept, container is overwhelming..maybe the finish against the materials are to jarring.
Good job.

pretty much feel the same way about the container.
HOWEVER, you could have just as easily painted the rivercane with metallic paint and it would be a great christmas design.
Maybe leave the river cane natural, use a brown container and fall colored roses.

The odd choice of container is what kept me from rating this design higher.....love the concept.

I like the overall design, however I would have picked a more natural container.

Shape is very nice and good design...as said before container takes away the wow factor for me. Well done otherwise

I really like this design, but the container unfortunately grabs the eyes first.

Ineresting use of shape, would like to see either a different container
or keep the container, but use maybe black or green bamboo to bring
it altogether.

I think the strobe flash from your camera has "flatten" the image of your design. Turning off the strobe and illuminating the target at an angle may help.
