Composing with branches 

"Composing with branches" requires at first to construct a stable structure with the branches themselves. It is an important technique we use in Sogetsu Ikebana which one can create bigger and impressive exhibition pieces with heavier branches and even tree trunks. The branches could be fixed together by wire, nail or screws to be a self standing composition. Only after then, you can choose your flowers and vases to go with the work.
