Our November workshop was accompanied by a depression in the bay, torrential rain, and many ladies unable to make it as a result. But those of us who did make it had a wonderful session! Vaishali's colourful demonstration had a special young guest as Padma Aunty brought her granddaughter along! Vaishali's demonstration Some of the pictures have got a bit washed out, unfortunately, like Vaishali's first arrangement with lovely bright orange jerberas. Along with the graceful lines of the maiden-hair fern, it was a bold and colourful start. Then she showed us this lovely metal vase, and the photo shows the beautiful designs inside. She chose to use this lovely leaf - is it a type of Acalipha? And this was the result! Her last arrangement was once again an interesting mango-shaped vase with a mother-of-pearl finish. Bleached material from Japan and one anthurium, and this was the spectacular result. The workshop Pushkala chose vegetables Trishala used dramatic leaves Dally&
