Peggy, I keep a square yard of black velvet on hand and when I need a background without any reflection / just deep black / I fix it as a background. Just laid it on the floor set the flower on top - and the ornaments are on a piece of Christmas decoration that I stuck in the "vase".

I have often struggled to find the perfect background. That would do it.

Thanks for the explanation, my dear Mira.
