Materials: Bamboo, Pine, mum and roses.(12/20/2011)
These materials are commonly used for New Year's flower arrangements in Japan, especially pine and mum. Be sure to make the tip of the pine needles face upward or forward to express dynamism. The bottom picture I did in class, but my teacher said the bamboo sticks were not tall enough, so I rearranged it and added the third tallest one right after class.
What a nice arrangement for New Years! I also like the pine and the roses better in your second try. Happy holidays to you!
