Photo #1: This was the original, shades of yellow with a white center, photographed on a black background (as most of my project are). The black background shows the colors and detail of the design well.

Photo #2: The same design with different colors. Brown center and edging with orange accents (for that sunflower look), and a seafoam green center. The black background does not showcase the brown colors very well.

Photo #3: Same design and colors as photo #2, but on a corkboard background. The brown colors show up much better in this lighter background.

Photo #4: Same design and colors as photo #2 but on a white background. The brown colors really pop on this background and the seafoam green shows up with a bit more color here. (I don't have a super high grade camera on my phone so getting a good color is always a challenge for me!)
Normally, I shy away from white backgrounds. And logically so, since a lot of doilies are ecru or white (or at least predominantly white). But I think for this one, the white turned out to be the better choice as it really allowed the brown edging to pop and the central color showed up a bit. I will confess it to be a close call between the the and the corkboard but am going with the white because of how it makes the border pop.
