Reuse!!

I made it a few days ago!!
It is reuse...isn't it?
Flowers in Japan are very expensive, so I didn't want to throw them away when they were withering.
And as I mentioned before, I had made dried flower and I made it with the dried flower.

Now, I am drying a yellow rose which I used once when I took the lesson of IKEBANA now.
I have only one rose, but I don't want to throw it away.

When I think like it... I mean, when I hesitate to throw something away because I might be able to use it, I always think it is "Mottainai".
Have you ever heard "Mottainai"?
It's Japanese language and I can't translate it into English correctly.
But the mind of "Mottainai" is important for us, I guess.
Please read "Wikipedia (about Mottainai)" if you have time(*^^*)
