Ok that was rather quick, 12 vs 1. Here's the back story:
The left is created by me. The right was designed by the head of custom floral for Michaels and then massively produced in China. There are many pieces that have been premade, they all look kind of weird though some are quite nice. Most of them have this weird fruit fetish going on, some even have artichokes in them which confuses me. The introduction of the premades has just gotten me worried that at one point my job will be phased out, that if they sell well enough why would Michaels need to employ me when they can have Jody design and mass produce? Just a little worried, needed some backing up from the public to reassure myself that my designs are good.
Thanks everyone!
