Meeting Schedule

Sometimes we need to stretch our brains and think outside the box (or in this case, the container). Join Liz Larwa as we explore how to use a placemat in unique ways when trying to create or enhance an arrangement. There will be several different styles and colors of placemats to choose from. You will need to bring one (or several different) containers to try out your creativity. They can be round, long, tall, small, large, or just a cup kenzan.

The materials should be light, airy, and summery such as: grasses, hydrangeas, Hosta, zinnia, interesting branches, or anything that feels summery. Other helpful items would be floral wire, clips, glue dots, scissors.

Supplies to Bring:

• Container of your choice (bring a few different ones to try out)

• Any kenzan size, if needed

• Hasami (floral shears)

• Cutting bowl

• Plastic or newspaper to cover work area

• Pitcher or bucket

• Cloth for clean up

• Camera for photographing creation

Note to All: $5.00 per person per month fee to help offset costs for our venue. We will have a door prize each month, so, as you pay, you will receive a ticket for a chance to win an ikebana related item.
