How To Make A Ladies Freesia Corsage For Special Occasion

[@maryh-w8647]

Very elegant, for some reason it reminded me of the queen

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you! Yes, I can see her wearing one like this - it’s a traditional style in this version, but classic never looks bad. 🌼

[@marniedahonick7453]

I love freesia. That is lovely, John!

What a bonnie corsage. Yellow Freesias are my all time favourite flowers.

[@FlowerJoos]

🌼 thank you 😊

Ah, John! I've viewed your corsage-making videos previously, and now this one. They only serve to inform me that I'll never quite be up to your caliber. For whatever reason, I've never been able to get a corsage just right. Fortunately, I no longer have to worry about that, but I do very much admire your ability to put one together in such a way that you make it look "easy". Wiring materials takes me back to a time when we wired everything - whether or not it was for a corsage - roses, carnations, etc. all got wired for "support". I'm glad those days have passed! Thanks, Friend,for this one, and for your wonderful talent. I hope things cool off for you soon. Take care!

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you! Yes, I’m old school really - but these techniques are good to know and a good base I think 😀 Yes, it’s been a bit warm! But better that than cold and wintery 😊

[@stepps511]

@@FlowerJoos I totally agree about warm over cold. I hope you guys have a wonderful week.

fantastic😊

Nice job - you make it look so easy - but you have an incredible eye for detail that comes naturally - thanks

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you so much 😊

[@loretta8764]

Love the green and gold. If you watch rugby, I live in Springbok land😉 Freesia ...one of my favourites. Thank you for sharing.

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you so much! It’s a good colour combination 🌼🏉 🙋🏼‍♂️

[@patriciaosorio2929]

Genial!!Perfect !!! I learned a new freesia wiring technique!! Muchas gracias from Argentina!! 💐🙂

[@FlowerJoos]

🙋🏼‍♂️🌼 thank you 😊

[@isabelmyosotis1588]

I always enjoy watching you make a corsage. I can make them now but it is not intuitive as it is with you. So many now want wrist corsages but a traditional one well made looks great!

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you so much 😊 wrist ones are the main choice now - but if you want something different then this one would stand out!

[@carolsoutar4719]

That is beautiful and delicate.Thanks John.

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you 😊

[@summerwynne6425]

Perfect John. Corsages are so fiddly and difficult to get right. Yours is exquisite. Thank you for sharing the technique. X

[@FlowerJoos]

You are very welcome - thank you 😊 🙋🏼‍♂️

[@lindajamesbeattie5270]

Beautiful corsage, I love it, thanks John! Linda x

[@puffypuff9779]

This is so pretty, I'm going to try and make one, just need somewhere to wear it !

[@FlowerJoos]

😀 send me a picture when you make one 🌼🙋🏼‍♂️

[@BenJimenez-in9hj]

Terrific

[@julie4613]

Thank you so very much for sharing this with us. It was nice that you explained what kind of flowers you used in detail and all the steps from wiring the individual flowers and leaves to constructing it.

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you so much 😊

[@pafarmgirl9519]

I always enjoy your designs. Thank you for your thoughtful instructions.

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you very much 😊

[@phillipleboa5251]

You make it LOOK so easy !! xoxxoxo :)

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you! I must admit it was one of the first things I learned to make - but I went through phases of hating them - well, hating making them! But now it’s good! I think finding the way that suits you best for making corsages and going with that makes them a lot easier - especially if you have a lot to make! That’s why I love the ivy leaves as a backing foliage - it frames and supports the flowers really well. 🌼🙋🏼‍♂️

[@lizcompton3048]

Really lovely! Do you have any videos for making a wrist corsage?

[@FlowerJoos]

We do - if you look in our playlist there is a video under weddings for a wrist corsage 😀🌼

[@matthewmurphy9869]

I love this 😊I made my wildflower bouquet and love it so I will be making another soon,thanks

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you 😊

[@CarolynJohnson-np8jj]

I love your show ❤️

[@harrymacleman1096]

Hi there John, can you please do a quick demo of the correct way to attach the corsage to clothing with a pin. Cheers! Pip

[@lynnemcnab3093]

You are wonderfully cheerful despite the hot weather! I wonder if corsages are still being used regularly in weddings--I haven't seen many in the last number of years when at weddings. It's so pretty, especially using freesia--I kind of hope they remain in "fashion." I am very fond of button holes (boutonieres) on men at weddings--extra handsomeness, especially if they're wearing a kilt!! I love this corsage for its bright, fresh look. Thanks John--stay cool!

[@FlowerJoos]

It was the bright freshness of the freesia that made me think it would be a perfect flower to use for a corsage. I’m with you - I hope they stay in fashion - and for a man it’s a great final detail for a special event. Dress to impress as they say 😀🌼

[@peggybernett9545]

Beautiful corsage! Could you please demonstrate how you would own the corsage on the person? I am left handed and have a nasty time trying to pin corsages on for weddings. Thank you for all your great videos! 🌹👏

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you! Yes, I’ve pinned on many a buttonhole - men are not so handy at doing it! The best way to think of it is putting a stitch through from the back with the pin - catching the stem of the corsage as you stick through. In the next corsage or buttonhole video I’ll show how I would do it 😀🌼

[@Mrs.Karen_Walker]

@@FlowerJoos would be lovely to see a demonstration of gentlemens buttonholes doing different classic styles for different occasions. formal, informal, casual etc and how to properly wear them. you could wear a jacket and show them. Cheers

[@FlowerJoos]

@@Mrs.Karen_Walker good idea 👍🏼 😀

[@martasochacka-duszak3028]

Masterpiece Its pretty, perfect balanced and so delicate in the same time Just stunning work

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you 😊

[@belananh]

How can you keep the flower fresh… when the stems are so short?

[@FlowerJoos]

This is for using on one day only - so it needs to be made on the day or the afternoon before. The tape helps seal the stem ends, but the flowers need to be well hydrated / conditioned before use. 😊

[@ladym6738]

Excellent as per your usual. Yellow quiet effective. Thank you. Also, have you lost some weight? Looks good.

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you 😊 the yellow is good - nice and strong visually. I hope so - 😀 it’s the hot weather, just eating less 🤣

[@memelak]

😊😘

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you 😊

[@roxanneroehrig324]

Appreciated the corsage, but much of your creation didn't show due to the camera angle. It was down on your turntable and what you were doing was cut off at the screen top. Just thought you might want to know 😉 John. As always, thank you so much for your teaching and experience ❤ 🥰

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you - that’s good feedback 🌼 I need to get better with the close-ups!

[@patsybryan5744]

Most time Mr John your camera view was out of position of your demonstration could not see clearly very pretty corsage.

[@FlowerJoos]

Sorry 😞

[@marlenejones9354]

Shame John couldn’t see everything you were doing out of camera shot

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you - yes, you are right. Lately we have added a third angle to get closer to what is happening, so going forward we will hopefully avoid this 🌼

[@mpoimokhafola333]

Good work but too long

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you 😊
