Maybe even cut them off and glue them onto the top ribbon, centering them on a little chalk line you can brush off afterward...so they make a little design...or matching them to the bottom trim. If you have a little extra, you could experiment before committing to a change.

Great solution! I was going to suggest that too- hot glueing them on the ribbon to match the bottom design.

Thanks Donna...I found the bones on ebay...12 for I think $8.00. I searched for wood bone shape craft and that's what came up. I live in a small town so I don't have a lot of shopping options. Im thinking a Michaels or JoAnn Fabrics might have them. The bone painting...free hand..I found a tutorial on internet by searching easy roses on fingernails (I used to get my nails done and the lady did the most amazing nail art)...then I added the stem/leaves and bows...I tell you...it was simple and if i can do it ANYONE can!
