My Ikebana: All That Alder

Added on November 28, 2021 by the ikebana shop.

As the leaves drop from the alder branches, their lines become more prominent.

We take advantage of those beautiful lines in this arrangement.

Here is the whole arrangement.

I hope you like it. —Miyako

My Ikebana: Delphinium And Cattail

Added on November 14, 2021 by the ikebana shop.

In the summer, cattail leaves grow upright, straight and true. In the autumn, the leaves start to dry out and bend in different ways. The dry withering colours contrast well with the bright blue delphinium too!

Here is the whole arrangement.

My Ikebana: Changing Height

Added on November 7, 2021 by the ikebana shop.

These two basket containers were used as a pair. At first, they were made to interact on the same level.

Making one of the baskets taller somehow changed the dynamic. Does it look better?

I hope you like it! —Miyako

My Ikebana: Lots Of Local Branches

Added on September 25, 2021 by the ikebana shop.

Yesterday, I had the chance to visit Maple Grove Nursery’s farm in the beautiful Annapolis Valley, NS. There, I was treated to a smorgasbord of branches. They were everywhere and I kept cutting away. So much wonderful material that we could never find in flower shops! I was so excited that when I got home, I immediately created an arrangement.
