    I have been making corsages for a decade and I love this method so much more than how I was taught. So much more secure!! This is how I will make them from here on out. Thank you!!

      @@lesaschmidt7668 thank you! I have to say shops have their own versions that work for them, that can be quite different from the correct taught versions! I used to work in a shop and we pushed single or double flower corsages rather than multi head versions as they are so much quicker to make - so a double orchid rather than freesia 😀

    This is the expert level of corsage making. This is the best looking corsage on UA-cam and you make it look so easy. That curve in the stem and the symmetry of the arrangements is proof of your high level of skill

    I watched a bunch of videos, and this was by far the most helpful with the most beautiful result. I used stuff from our yard: white iceberg shrub roses and buds, Emerald Gaiety Euonymus (wintercreeper) instead of ivy, some springs of vinca, fig leaves (from a house plant), and sheer white bows. I swapped the vinca for a sprig of juniper to make a matching boutonniere. They turned out beautifully! Thank you!

      twistedangel 01 hello - thank you for commenting. I know what you mean, what I do with those ribbons is tie them across first as they are threading wrong for the way I think the corsage should sit on the band and wrist. Then when tying on the corsage they don’t just pull through. 🌞

    I typically use floral glue for prom wrist corsages. Using glue cuts the weight of materials and allows for more freedom of design and shape.
    Another helpful video, thanks!

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  6 років тому +1

      Kelli Rustin thanks for the comments - I do use cold glue sometimes but more to add a detail to a base design. Yesterday I did this on a cake top and a shower bouquet to add little dendrobium orchids. It’s lighter, and quicker as you say.
      Either method is good, it’s which you prefer. I always get covered in glue!

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  6 років тому +6

      Libra I personally would only make it the day before in the afternoon - that way it is nice and fresh. Or ideally on the day. I don’t think I would make it two days in advance, but the best way to keep it is wrapped in a box, or plastic with space round it, and keep in a cool place. The orchids are best not refrigerated as that might be too cold. You can give it a light mist but don’t have it wet, just in case it marks the petals.

      Vicki Vee hello - yes I have and they were fine. It’s also possible to combine the two. I like the glue for adding a final detail or dendrobium orchid head. It does allow you to make a corsage in a slightly different way .

    Beautiful.. can you tell me what material I would need ?

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  5 років тому +1

      Too Blessed the materials used are listed in the video description - but essentially you need rose wires, flower tape, a bracelet base and a few leaves and flowers. Depending on what flowers you use you will get different results

      I made a "test" corsage 3 days ago (72 hours and counting) out of blooms and greenery from our yard, and it is still perky and fresh looking today. I've stored it in a plastic container with some water and a moist paper towel at the bottom (the paper towel is to avoid having it sit directly in the water). I put a lid on it loosely, leaving it slightly open for air flow. I'm going to make a new one today just to be sure it's fresh tomorrow when it's needed, but with fresh "ingredients," it seems a corsage can last for at least 3 days in the refrigerator.

    Hi John
    Just for reference, when your making a corsage - when would be best to prepare it? Would the day before an event be alright and leave it in the fridge alongside buttonholes that are in tupperware with airholes and spirtzed with water?

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  3 роки тому +1

      Hello! Yes, that is fine - essentially it is the same as a buttonhole . Just be wary of some flowers in a fridge - maybe too cold for orchids or lisianthus. If very soft material then best made on the day. 😀🙋🏼‍♂️

    Hello John, am your avid fan from down under and i would like to ask you what are the 3 possible construction problems in making a corsage..🤭 thank you and blessings to you always.

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  5 років тому +1

      girlie martinez hello - thanks for messaging. My three would be firstly if you are struggling with taping - this needs to be good, so it’s worth practising when you first learn, secondly be neat! That always looks better. Lastly make sure elements are secure. So, roses sometimes snap at the neck. If this happens then it needs rewired . If you just leave it, it will fall off the wire.
      Basically, the more you practise the better you get I suppose is the best advice. 😀🙋🏼‍♂️

    • @girliemartinez3478
      @girliemartinez3478 5 років тому +1

      Thank you so much for the advised. Yes i am struggling when comes to taping and as what you recommend “practise” is the best way of doing things right.
      Again.. thank you and more videos please💕💐😊

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  5 років тому +1

      girlie martinez I find people tend to be too cautious pulling the tape - it needs a stretch as it goes on, then it won’t unravel 😀

    So how long would this last? Is this something that can be made the day before? I would be afraid it would wilt if I made it too soon

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  4 роки тому

      crazydog I would make this the afternoon before or on the day. If the materials are well conditioned and the finished item is kept cool and covered overnight then it’s fine. A little mist of water is also good 😀

    This is wonderful but you need to say that the leaves and individual flowers you are using have all been pre-wired - and perhaps sow how first ??

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  3 роки тому

      That’s a good point - we have two videos one showing how to wire different types of leaves and the other different styles of flower shapes . 🌼🙋🏼‍♂️

    • @FlowerJoos

      Fran. E I woukd just keep them somewhere cool, and give it a light mist with water. Then pop into the bridal box along with the other bridal flowers . But yes, that’s a good suggestion to show this 🌼😀

    What keeps the flowers gloomy for the entire ceremony with out water

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  10 місяців тому

      Once they are cut they are without water - so they need to be well hydrated, made as close to when needed as possible and stored cool until needed. As long as they are good on the day that’s all that’s needed for these designs

  • @johannajeffel8310
    @johannajeffel8310 5 місяців тому +1

    How many days will this last after making it ? Just trying to figure out if I can make this 2 days ahead and put it in the refrigerator

    • @FlowerJoos
      @FlowerJoos  5 місяців тому

      The minute the flowers are cut they are out of water, so the closer to when they are needed the better. I think two days is too long personally as the flowers will look tired and not last as well. You might be better to make a little kit, with everything prepped that can be ( so the band, any ribbon etc all together, as well as wires and tape ) and the flowers just needing cut, wired and taped.
      That is maybe a better option. Though you could do a test one and see how it is after two days? It needs to preform for a day though.
