So many things come to mind when I look at your picture:
Photos with Family with the Chrysanthemum's in the background.
An afghan blanket or quilt made out of Chrysanthemum's.
A wedding dress or flower girl dress.
This has been such an inspiration! 1,000 blooms of chrysanthemums can result in many possibilities!
