I saw that right away, Mary.
And this is fantastic!!!!!!!!
I can't figure out if this is one capture of the succulent and frame or it you put the frame digitally around the plants.
This is so clever!!! And really unique.
And I hope to see it again.

This had to be one unique and beautiful show when you get works and creativity like this. My first year growing them and am enjoying the results. The use of the old picture frame is awesome and sure does make for a beautiful display. You did an outstanding job yourself with your camera in capturing this. Love the colors and look Mary. You have yourself a wonderful Sunday and take care dear friend. #10718751
