Hana-Kubari twig

Cut a twig to the length you require. Cut away any side branches. This twig has an interesting double side branch, I left that so that the flower stem can rest between the twigs

See the Tutorial below for detailed instructions on how to easily cut a thicker twig

Split the twig at the thicker bottom end with a sharp knife right through the middle of the stem.

Slip the twig over the edge of your container so that it stands upright

Fill the container with water

Let the stem rest against the twig or nestle in a fork in a side branch
