Honshitsu/Seizui

I have begun my study
 "Elements of Japanese Design".
It is a lifetime adventure.

In January I am focusing on Honshitsu / Seizui.
It is learning the real essence of a thing.

In our media room our Ficus is our focal.
We have repotted her.
She is my soul tree. I honor her.
I made curtains for our room.
I used a lovely hand painted silk.

The wind has shifted.
The temperatures have dropped.
A midwinter Jicker is rolling in.
Brr.....
I hope it snows!

Dear Sherry,

Ficus looks beautiful in its new pot. She will put on growth in the Spring.....a happy little tree.

I love the curtains, they are exquisite. Lovely choice.

Stay warm......we also have a cold front on the way. No snow here though.
