it's all about the triangles

I started learning Ikebana with a couple of other gals from church today. Sorry the picture isn't the greatest quality... my camera isn't charged at the moment so I used iphoto and held my computer to take the picture. So it's kind of blurry.



This is also the recreated arrangement... First we do it in class, then Mimi, my teacher, fixes it (it's amazing what a little turn/twist/bend can do), and then we take a picture and sketch it. After that we take it apart and bring all the materials home to recreate it again (as my dad always says, "practice makes better"). It's kind of nice to have flowers in my room.

(on a side note: I think Japan is making me more girly.)

I must be slow...it took me a few minutes and some mindless clicking before I figured out you had to scroll down to find the comment box.

I'm very impressed by your floral arrangement...Japan has such clean designs. In America...don't we just stuff the vases to bulging.
