The biggest challenge of this week's One-Bouquet-a-Week Challenge was getting the pink stains off the palms of my hands after cutting down these suckers to fit in the vase. (It took about a day or so--Trader Joe's must have used a gallon of dye for each one. Yowzah.) When selecting this bunch of sunflowers, I was hoping to capture a droopy-cool van Gogh-esque look. However, a cobalt-blue container combined with the fiery red petals and punchy yellow centers of these bloomers make them look slightly comical and clownish. But since Vincent van Gogh probably never made anyone laugh, I think I might just like this LOL-like arrangement almost as much as his masterpiece anyway.
