HI Maybe I can help alittle. I owned a flower shop for 25 years and taught a few classes in that time. If I were telling one of my students what was wrong I would tell them they need a couble form flowers pods or something larger for a focal point--then your design would take on a whole new form. Yoy might pull some of your berrys and grasses down abit so it isn't all sticking upward, But really for a fall design you had a very good start.
