Well the 2010 Flower and Garden Festival started yesterday at Epcot in Orlando Florida. I must say that I am both happy and exhausted! It is a lot of hard work to get that show organized, but it is so rewarding. I fyou are going to be in Orlando be sure to check it out as it runs through May 16th.
Here are some highlights

I participated in a Sean Smith workshop during the Joy of Bonsai for building a miniature Tokonoma. It was a lot of fun and a great price.
This was the first steps of constructing the Tokonoma. Sevrel types of woods were used, however I really can’t remember them at this time.
I love this picture! At first it looks like a computer course with people sitting around laptops, but they are only these wooden things. I like to think of it as an Amish Computer Training Class.
More supplies are shown here. It was put together with only glue. Really a great kit that Sean provided.
The side panel had a window that was later fitted with a bamboo treatment.
Here is the finished room with a tree from Louise Leister. Hard to tell the scale of it because it really looks like a full sized room.
I had a little bit of fun with Photoshop after the class by inserting pictures of all of the people that took the class. This photo actually became a bit famous and is used in newsletters and advertisments for all sorts of things.
