In the middle of this month, my husband's ex-lady collage who is a member of "Ohara School of Ikebana" told us about the Exhibition. Each work has the beautiful personal sense of Arranging and has the kind of different style from the another schools' I've been to many times. Only some of the works here; wish you'll enjoy them with me♪
It sure was hard to choose the works to introduce here ;-)

Gorgeous flower arrangements! It’s really hard to pick a favorite. They are all so beautiful and elegant!
ReplyDeleteIt does seem like the Japanese White-eye is looking at you. Maybe he/she is familiar with you :-) :-)
Very Merry Christmas to you, Miyako san. Thank you for your friendship through blogging again this year. Wishing you and your family a very happy and healthy new year!
Miyako - I enjoy creating flower arrangements, so this post is very interesting to me for new ideas. I am most fascinated by the variety of containers that have been used (baby shoes?) and the notion of using several vases gathered together for one arrangement. Thank for adding this inspiration to Mosaic Monday this week! Merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteThe floral arrangements are elegant and creative. Such preciseness, too. Thanks for sharing photos of them. Merry Christmas. :-)
ReplyDeleteYou always frame your photos so beautifully! Merry Christmas dear friend! Holiday hugs, Diane

Dearest Miyako,
ReplyDeleteYou are right about it being difficult to pick a favorite from such lovely Ikebana arrangements, they all are beautiful.
Love your bird photos and wishing you both a good ending of the year and a Happy New Year!

so beautiful. We had an Ikebana demonstration here a couple of years ago as part of a floral exhibition. Beautiful and contemplative. Have a lovely week. I am joining you at Wednesday Around the World.
