If, moreover, silver, white and gold are complementary colors - that is, they complement some basic color. For example, red and gold, blue and silver. Choose one main color to play the leading role in the composition, include one additional bright shade and dilute the Ekibana with silver, white or gold.

In festive winter floristry, not only flowers are used, but also other natural materials - cones, spruce and pine branches, cinnamon sticks, dried fruits and berries.
