Just beautiful John. Thankyou
😊
That is a stunning corsage and buttonhole, John. As usual you make it look so easy. I am still at the ‘hating’ stage and avoid them if possible.
Thank you 😊 you will get past that stage! Everyone goes through it 😀🌼
Gorgeous corsage and buttonhole. Like the color combinations.
Thank you 😊
Fantastic corsage and buttonhole. Thank you John. 💖🌺
Thank you 😊
Absolutely stunning John, and very informative. A pleasure to watch.
interesting, I have never seen the pin up the bottom ... I enjoy watching your videos ... it's very relaxing and interesting and I learn :)
Gorgeous corsages master class
Thank you 😊
A small masterpiece. Fantastic color selection. Very, very, very beautiful co position ❤. Thank you for the pleasure of viewing your work 😊🙏
Thank you so much 😊 🌼🌸🍃
I think this is Great. I am going to copy this today. I have agapanthus in the garden right now.
Thank you 😊 enjoy - the agapanthus is nice to use, especially if each flower it is big and strong. Enjoy getting creative!
Hey there, John! What a great video. Thank you! I really love watching you work. I find it therapeutic as well as educational. I've always enjoyed making buttonholes and corsages, tho' I've not had to make dozens (of the latter) at a time. I recall a video of yours using hyacinth pips in the making of a corsage and very much enjoyed that. The agapanthus works nicely too. Hope you have a wonderful week, Friend. Enjoy!
Thank you! I love watching the craft programs on telly - anything - could be cooking, clothes making, jewellery. It’s always interesting and I learn something as well as finding them therapeutic as well.
Have a great week - enjoy the little things ( And indeed the big things too ). 🌼😊
Beautiful, very pretty, you make it look so easy 🌿
Thank you 😊
Thật tuyệt vời , cảm ơn vì đã chia sẻ những tác phẩm đẹp
Cảm ơn bạn rất nhiều 😀🌼🌼🌼
Beautiful job! Very easy to follow and understand! I see you had to put a "J" on your scissors, I don't like it when others "borrow my scissors" either, lol!
Thanks so very much for the excellent and thorough class! I haven’t done any in over two years and need to keep my skills up since my third child could become engaged this year. Those are really lovely. Would also be interested to hear a video about choosing which florals are best for being easy and hardy. In the past I had trouble with my hydrangeas wilting. I am in Texas. Thanks again
Thank you 😊 that is a good point - hydrangeas are very popular just now but really they don’t stand well, even in arrangements they can be tricky. The fashion just now is soft summer flowers - so these don’t do so well in the fully wired corsage designs. But a corsage can be make as a little tied bunch and kept in water until needed - so they have open stems and just brought together at the tie point.
I’ve done them for a funeral too, a single rose for gents and a little more for the ladies.
That’s unusual but special to do. 🌼
Great video John, thank you for sharing
Thank you 😊
Agapanthus, good choice

@@FlowerJoos exactly 👍🏻
❤ fantastic tutorial thank you.
Thank you 😊 🌸🌸🌸
Thank you so much
I’ll never forget being up till 3am making bouts and corsages gift my son’s wedding. I knew that having 10 maids and 10 grooms would be a lot! Plus Dads and minister,etc. but I got them made. Mine were with spray roses so much easier
Wow - that was a lot of work to take on - and it’s also the stress of it can be a problem. Spray roses are ideal for corsages - my other favorite are the dendrobium orchids - they are nice and lightweight as well 😀
@@FlowerJoos that would be beautiful! They are very dainty. Maybe next wedding-one more wedding to go for my last child. But she has a huge family and I can only imagine the size of her wedding party. Around here recently many of the brides have those extremely large number of bridesmaid and it makes the flowers and rehearsal dinner more expensive. But I’d never say no-I just look a live class and with your videos learned the basics and did the flowers myself. Love flowers but wish you could do wedding flowers over a week instead of just a few days!
@@susancook1448 I was just looking there to find the video of a tied corsage - but I haven’t made one, so that will be a future video! But you just gather the flowers in your pinched fingers and arrange them to sit nicely - like a corsage, then tie them off and pop in water. When needed just cut to length required and add a bow or finishing touch!
Just persuade her to get married at the best time flower wise / weather wise! 😀
@@FlowerJoos thank you! Great idea! So far I’ve convinced the two already married to select the first week in June. I did have peonies and garden roses available. But in 2021 a large portion of the greenery I ordered didn’t arrive until the Monday after as well as two other order mistakes. Fortunately I over ordered so I had plenty. I just used what I had for the greenery and it was fine and received a refund. But glad that didn’t happen in the first wedding
I sure do have trouble with lilies though. Seems like they drop petals if they even touch anything.
Beau5iful!!
Thank you 😊
Outstanding corsages!
Thank you 😊
Oh my gosh, I’m loving your videos!!
Thank you so much 😊
5:10 the technique you use for wiring that leaf, could you also use on a leather leaf fern? I usually use those for corsages and they’ll snap on me occasionally 😅 if I could wire it I bet that would help.
Separate note, these colors are beautiful together! I love the soft blue of agapanthus.
Yes, just bring a stitch from the back to the front then back again, fold into a loop like with the leaves here. Then it will add support and allow you to bend it a little. But you are right that leatherleaf is more brittle, and more likely to snap. I tend to use it at the tip or back of a corsage and then finish the return with something like ivy which can take a bend!
@@FlowerJoosthanks, I’ll give that a go next time 😊
Hi, what is the maximum time you can make this before you’ll need them for the event?
How do you keep them fresh?
The day before is ok - but earlier than that they won’t last well when actually used. But the flower choice is also a factor - soft flowers last least well - whereas something like an orchid will be much better
how would the woman wear that? more towards the shoulder? so beautiful
While the arrangements are lovely, aren't corsages supposed to be worn on the wrist? Would be nice to see how you'd attach them to a ribbon!
Thank you 😊 traditionally men wear theirs on the left lapel facing up and ladies on the right hand side of their outfit. Wrist corsages are a more recent creation - but the corsage is made in a similar way. They can then be attached to a bracelet or ribbon. We do have a video showing a wrist version 😀
