The Viburnum Berries alone in the photo below make a striking design in a water base, and hold up very very well.

Below is a variation of the above design. By adding curly willow (instead of the allium stems) we can take a design and make it quite large, depending upon the space we want to fill. Also can charge more!

Some folks do dry them, but the bittersweet berries really look wonderful while alive, and the foliage fills up a container quickly and easily. It's great stuff to use in the live form. I really fell in love with this berry.

Modular designs are designs that can be placed next to each other to create a large more expensive and complex piece. Viburnum berries made this water based piece really easy.

Monochromatic. Greens. Hydrangea worked well here along with your green sedum. The design also contains Trick Dianthus.
