Spring- and Autumn-Ikebana from two Continents

This week, we continued working on Springtime-Ikebana without using a kenzan, which is always a challenge, but it worked out beautifully with our lovely spring branches and flowers. The German students, on the other hand, worked with bare branches or berry branches and many loose leaves for the Atumn-Arrangements We tied some or a lot of the leaves together with wire to create little or big nests, which we tucked into the arrangements. The results were beautiful ikebanas that will last until our next course begins in four weeks.
