Ikebana Take 2

I enjoyed my first taste of ikebana so much that I had to go back for more...this time Katie joined in too.

Once again Eiko picked some beautiful flowers for us including gladiolas, daisies and some pretty pink flowers (forget their name). I was surprised at how much I had actually remembered from last time including measuring the flowers across the diameter of the dish.


Once again we looked at the 'depth' of our triangular arrangements and followed Eiko's instructions carefully. I think Katie was concentrating really hard (well, I think the tongue gives it away!). Once again, I really enjoyed putting it all together and in a flash it was all done. I just can't wait for the red gladiolas to bloom.
