Make Your Own Corsage

use fresh flowers to make a wearable pin

My kids were headed to a banquet, and I needed to come up with corsages and boutonnieres quickly. I used leaves to create a base and then laid the larger flower on the base. All stems should be facing the same direction. I filled in gaps with smaller flowers, wrapped stems using floral tape, and added a ribbon bow. Be sure the boutonniere is pinned securely and not top heavy.
