Home decor: With ribbon or without ribbon?
Hi Steemians,
I bought a glass cloche from an op shop (thrift store) a while back and decided to put a candle with candle holder and a pair of dove salt and pepper shakers in it. I am not sure if it looks better with the lace ribbon or without the ribbon. What do you think?

Thanks for the feedback @deanliu
Thank you for posting @snooway.
Lovely idea.....sweet doves....and beautiful cloche. Thank you for the opportunity to ponder these things.
Without the ribbon is better however something is wanting...perhaps a white paper lace doily would work under the doves and candle holder. What do you think? If a doily is not available and you want to try the look....a white coffee filter cut into a snowflake may work just as well.
As a composition, in this case, one is looking to soften the ensemble....so we try various things until the eye is satisfied.
Happy New Year.
Thanks for the doily idea @bleujay. Happy new year to you too
I really like it ! But I think too much white with the doves as well looks like it's designed for a nice wedding ! So at least omit the ribbon ! Just a suggestion as it is beautiful either way ! Thanks for sharing !😉👍
Thanks @karenmckersie. I think you are right. I will take the ribbon off. The doves were from a friend's wedding as was the white ribbon.
