How To Make A Wrist Corsage

How To Make A Wrist Corsage With Singapore Dendrobium Orchids.
In this video we look at not only how to create a wrist corsage, but also look at a couple of options for attaching the corsage to a wrist bracelet. We have used little white Singapore orchids, and they make the perfect flower for a light weight corsage that would go with any outfit for any occasion. All we need now is an invite to a wedding or a prom.......
Ingredients - white dendrobium orchids, ivy leaves, French ruskus leaves, one pearl bracelet, wires and corsage tape.

This is the expert level of corsage making. This is the best looking corsage on KZbin 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

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you so much 😊 my first employer ( 41 years ago now ) was very old school and that served me well 😀

Thank you John, simple and beautiful. Your techniques with wiring are a delight to watch. What a clever idea of using the ribbon as a substitute when one can't get the colour in a flower, and it acts as support for the flowers too.

[@nancyduhalde4679]

Thank you that was so helpful!

[@anneg7411]

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!

[@FlowerJoos]

Fantastic 😀 thank you!

Loved your video. I am making this tomorrow and will follow your video. Thanks

[@kellirustin7944]

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]

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]

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. 🌞

At 9.38, that made me laugh a lot - 'this is going to be quite footery' I love that - very obviously from the northeast. Great video. I am doing the flowers for my friends wedding and I've never done any sort of flowers before.

[@FlowerJoos]

Hazel Smith and it is a bit footery! 😀 Thank for watching - for your friends wedding it’s worth having a go in advance to see what problems might pop up. Even to use a few basic flowers as practice material. I grew up in Crieff - so we have sayings from all over ( my father was from Angus way ). 😀🌼

[@hazel3419]

@@FlowerJoos thanks that's great advice. I've had a wee go with some bits in the garden and supermarket flowers, though I'll be getting supplies from Camden market the day before the big day. I don't know what will be in season mid September, but feel fairly confident after watching many of your videos that I should be able to select suitable material for a beginner to make a good stab at it. Thanks again for the brilliant tutorials. (My family are more from the North East/Aberdeen and there's so many words in Doric that are hilarious and don't quite have English equivalents. The classic joke: Which foot fits which foot? is “Fit fit fits fit fit?” haha always cracks me up that one.)

Morning John. Beautifully created, as always. I’ve never considered swapping the ribbons for wires, thank you! The ribbons are pesky and I never feel they are completely secure... Keep ‘em coming my dear x

[@FlowerJoos]

Jan Leytham-Gain yes, I always worry the ribbon will slip open, even if knotted a few times. The wires give total security.

[@theparlourflorist]

Flower Joos .. its absolutely my fear too! xx

[@libra951]

Thanks for the video John. What's the best way to store if it's made couple of days in advance? Can it be sprayed with water before storing and after taking it out of the fridge, if its done that way? Please advise.

[@FlowerJoos]

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.

Hello John. I’ve seen demos on wired wrist corsages and using cold glue to make corsages. Does the glued corsages last as long as the wired? In your experience which method do you think is better and long lasting?

[@FlowerJoos]

Vicki Vee hello - both methods are equally good. I suppose it’s which you prefer to use. From a flower point of view both will last the same.

[@juliahelland6488]

I definitely prefer wrist corsages to pin-on kind ❣️

[@FlowerJoos]

Julia Helland yes - you can wear them for the full event. A pin on normally is on a jacket, which probably comes off when inside. 😀🌼

[@Lalovision3D]

Helpful description of technique. Would be nice to have a closer view.

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you 😊 yes, this was one of the early videos we did - but closer would of been better 😀🌼

[@cloudskin7937]

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]

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. 😀🙋🏼‍♂️

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 .
