Happy New Year



Materials:Pine, red carnation, mizuhiki (Japanese paper strings),old branch.
Others:  Cup kenzan, Japanese tray. painted black bamboo.

 Traditional Japanese style arrangement for New Year. The tray was arranged slanting and created more lively movement and gold ,silver mizuhiki add up to a festive mood. My classmates they are all struck by this arrangement. This slanting branch was given by my teacher and looks very elegant but powerful, indeed.(12-4-12)
