Abstract:

An automated system for personalizing containers with artistic arrangements, such as flowers, provides a customer with the ability to personalize a custom decoration for the container. Specifically, the customer can select a design and include personal images and greetings. In particular, the personalized decoration can be built by layering user selected images and text on a virtual canvas. An automated system can assist the customer by coordinating colors between the personalized decoration and the arrangement to yield a visually appealing package. The resulting personalized content can be printed on a water-resistant film for insertion within a clear vase.
