We were in the middle of a lockdown due to the pandemic’s 3rd wave. I could not go to the studio to look for a container for ikebana. I turned to the 50 Principles of Sogetsu for advice!
“Green bamboo tubes and simple rustic jars also make the best containers.”
It tells us that even every day things can become a great container. So I looked around the house and found this lid that went on top of a bamboo basket. And that’s what I used!
This arrangement makes us feel the coming of summer—warmer days, fresh greens, and lovely colours.
Here is the whole arrangement.
I hope you like it. —Miyako
