Instructions for creating Boutonnieres or Corsages for weddings, Prom or Formal Dances.

Boutonnieres
  1. Choose a working area that includes a table or counter top.
  2. On your table, have handy the following tools: one roll of green floral tape, one set of spears, floral wire and one decorative pin.
  3. Choose a flower stem head that is neither in full bloom nor tightly closed.
  4. Using your spears cut the stem approximately three to four inches below the head. You can use more than one flowers. Most are done with one or two stems. But you can have up to three blooms.
  5. Choose a green, filler or rose leaf that is large, green and pleasing to the eye and place it behind the rose bud.
  6. Take the floral wire and place it behind the leaf and the rose bud. Be sure that the leaf conceals the top of the wire. The remaining wire should be wrapped like a hairpin around the stem of the rose and the leaf holding them together.
  7. Take the floral tape and begin to wrap it around the two stems, making sure to conceal the entirety of the stems and the wire.
  8. Using your decorative pin, your boutonniere is ready to be placed on one of the groomsmen.
  9. You did it! Enjoy!
