Ikebana means making flowers come alive
Each Ikebana has its own story while arranging. Crafting Ikebana is a great way of making us realize our artistic vision, which is usually hidden from our daily life. Communication with the power of nature makes us relax and gives us opportunity to rediscover the beauty of nature. Our artistic vision of the harmony of heaven, man, and earth brings us peaceful and pleasurable moments to our life.
