Christmas-Special-Workshop / Last Workshop in 2025
/We concluded our Ikebana year with a bamboo workshop. We combined Japanese traditions with Western Christmas traditions. In Japan, beautiful New Year arrangements are traditionally created using bamboo, pine, and plum blossoms. Bamboo symbolizes strength, pine represents endurance and plum blossoms stand for hope and all together for the promise of a good New Year. As plum blossoms were not available to us, we worked instead with lilies and other spring flowers. By blending these elements with our own Christmas traditions, we created truly beautiful arrangements.
We wish all our Ikebana-friends a merry Christmas and a happy and creative New Year 2026. We are on holiday until end of January 2026.
