The 50 Principles of Sogetsu by Sofu Teshigahara - Main Line Study Group March Subject

This arrangement is one of the Sofu’s “The 50 Principles of Sogetsu.” It’s Principle #32 or #33 about containers. It says: “Green bamboo tubes and simple rustic jars make the best containers,” and “Select a container that accentuates the beauty of the ikebana arranged in it.” The members’ arrangements of this subject will show in the Main Line study group’s zoom class on 3/15/2021which in charge by our chairperson Marcia. She will be demo and critique our arrangements.

Mine: I recycled a gift bag, used it as a container and made an arrangement in it. Using forced magnolia  flowering branches, mums, alstroemerias, boxwood and wrapping paper.
