365 Days of Ikebana-Day 303

Some days I have a pretty good idea of how to use the materials I choose and other days I cut things and then “force” myself to come up with a creative solution to work with them. Today the two most outstanding things blooming in the garden were the white sweetpeas (heavenly) and blue nigella, so I just selected them in anticipation. What I came up with is in part a mass design and it’s also an ikebana to be viewed from above too. All the flowers are massed to one side to reveal the water on the other(so it can also be considered an arrangement featuring water).The hto pink sweetpeas are just beginning to bloom, so I will gather some ideas for them as well as some ideas for more of the white.
