Learn the art of reading and arranging flowers in a way that pays respect to the characteristics of the individual stem as much as the principles of design. Inspired by the methods of Ikebana (the Japanese art of flower arranging), along with the abundant flora of Brisbane’s surrounds, you will learn to create botanical artworks that speak of the seasons and allow you to bring nature into your home.

For this loose and airy style of vase arrangement, you will use a Kenzan (Japanese ikebana tool) as the anchor for your flowers. Bring a low-rimmed dish or bowl to act as your vase, and the rest will be supplied!

What you'll get

  • Brass Kenzan
  • Floral Scissors
  • Floral Adhesive
  • Flowers and floral materials

what to bring

  • Low-rimmed dish or bowl to act as vase* (roughly the size of a soup bowl, must be watertight).
  • Keen ears and eyes to do your best flower-whispering with.
