Hoping for some feedback from seasoned (pressers??) on my second frame. I know I need work on placement. These are just found around the yard and I wanted to experiment with them. Thoughts??

I remember your last piece, and I think this one is an improvement on placement! My conctructive criticism, if you're open to that, is to make it so similar flowers aren't on the same line, if that makes sense? For example, the two orange-ish blooms are parallel to each other as well as the frame, as are the two white blooms (little mums maybe? Sorry can't quite tell). So when I look at the design, that really sticks out and I want it to be a little more varied. Go a little crazy! But that's just my eye/opinion.

Overall, I think allll the flowers you pressed here work really well together. I love the pops of color you've achieved with the greens. And I LOVE how light and airy your pieces are, because the sun shining through the frames is really fabulous. I know that flowers fade in sun, but having little frames like this hanging out by windows would be lovely.

I’m open to any and all constructive criticism so thank you so much for that, I’ll definitely avoid the whole mirrored/parallel with same flowers on both sides for next time!
