A workshop from Adriana - Arranging with Leaves only

February 14, 2021 Ikebana Wellington

Adriana demonstrating how to make an arrangement with leaves only

Our first workshop for 2021 saw us back at Khandallah Town Hall on 14 February, 2021. Adriana lead the workshop.

It was Valentines Day, so with flowers being expensive, we learnt how to do an arrangement with leaves - either With Leaves Only (Book 4, lesson 2) or Composition of Surfaces by using Leaves (Book 3, lesson 14). For students working on Book 1 or 2, they tried a textbook arrangement emphasising leaves.
