Centerpiece fail

After a long blog hiatus i am finally getting back to documenting my adventures in diy (both failures and successes). Here was a spring time attempt @ a centerpiece I saw in bhg. It was a "butterfly tree" and all around fail... I set it up and was never quite sure about it after a few weeks of looking at it I decided that I hated it and tossed it. This decision was affirmed by my husband who first had said it was an "interesting idea" now said it was "the most horrible thing ever, but I didn't want to hurt your feelings. You tried." thanks. Even though it was a bad deal the same issue of bhg gave way to my now go to centerpiece (centerpiece for when there is no holiday to decorate for) which turned out to be a win, so all in all not a total loss....
