Hi John, a beautiful demonstration using the orchids which made the technique so easy to see. Another useful tip of course is using a damp cloth, which I hadn't thought of before, but makes sense. I did wonder what the crown would look like at the end and was surprised, it's lovely. Thanks for reminding us of the wiring techniques you've used. Another brilliant video, thank you 🙂

[@FlowerJoos]

Julie Speer thank you! Glad you enjoyed our video and it’s good to share ideas and tips.

Thank you 😊

As I watched this video, it brought back memories of when I lived in Panama. (Better tell you, I'm 76 years old.) During one of our luaus for a school event, I made a CROWN of colorful flowers for the Queen of the Luau and I cannot believe that I DID IT RIGHT!!! I did EVERYTHING you just did!!! I'm ecstatic!!! I actually didn't know what I was doing and I followed your work down to the letter!!! I guess that somewhere in my HEAD (not much there now, LOL LOL) I have the right instructions on how to make a headdress out of flowers!!! Thanks for this one, John. It's a keeper and I'm sharing it with my friends!

[@FlowerJoos]

George Garcia thank you! It’s quite similar for some floral cake decor - so maybe a cross over there? Thank you for sharing the story - thank you for sharing 😀🙋🏼‍♂️

[@debbieclifford585]

what a lovely and different headdress so nice to see different flowers used

[@FlowerJoos]

Debbie Clifford thank you - one of our subscribers suggested the orchids!

[@LinaBooC-tg8ou]

Very nice, I just got the idea to do several with all greenery and have a Roman themed party!

[@FlowerJoos]

That’s a cool idea - toga parties aspire the best!

[@tabathazacchini-crabtree3131]

Another great video!! I like the idea of the wet cloth thanks for the tip. I love listening to you talk your accent is so sweet.

[@FlowerJoos]

tabatha crabtree thank you - it’s the only accent I’ve got! Well, I can try others but I think that would be hard to do for a whole video 😬

[@tabathazacchini-crabtree3131]

I'm from USA and you have a very soothing voice so please don't change it!!!

Fabulous, John. I really love those orchids.

[@jenniferchamberlain7462]

Thanks John - love the idea of using orchids - great video

[@habiboyoo]

Thank you so much. This is what I was looking for. I'll make sure I tag you in one of my projects that I'll be using the headwrap.

Magnifique, merci beaucoup Joos ! 👍😍⚘

[@woolenhat5796]

I'm on part 2 of my diploma at college, havent really learned how to wire flowers yet, apart from Gerberas, I cannot wait to make something as pretty as this. Especially for the spring!

[@FlowerJoos]

woollen hat thank you - lots of possibilities with flowers in springtime. Some people don’t like wiring but it’s worth learning, always handy to know.

[@khillikialea]

This was very helpful thank you so much John.

[@FlowerJoos]

Thank you 😊

[@xtenm]

Wow, great vid packed with information! Really appreciate it. I'm apprenticing in the states ( year 3) and I make these nearly every weekend. Looking forward to incorporating your techniques into my work. Right now we use a taped single straight wire and plain stems, only certain things wired, and use bullion wire because it's strong but light. Ribbon closure is very common here because we don't customize the fit-- not every member of the bridal party gives their measurements reliably. Looking forward to trying your techniques this weekend!

[@FlowerJoos]

Christen Mitchell thank you for commenting and watching 😀 yes, in the commercial world it’s not possible to wire and tape all the materials, it just takes too long. The end effect is the important thing.

[@utubepk1108]

Hi John , I subscribed you channel a few days ago. you are amazing and explain very easily, also use very gorgeous flowers. Thanks !

[@lindamorgan4604]

Hi John, thats gorgeous, you make things look so easy! I'm making flower girl headdresses for my daughters wedding, I'm going need plenty of practice 1st as never made one before! Is there a certain weight wire that you use to attach flowers or doesn't it matter? 😊

[@FlowerJoos]

Linda Morgan .22 for the green wire and .28 for the very fine rose wire - but you could have .26 as a slightly thicker rise wire - and .24 fi4 tg3 stub wire. I generally go by the ‘feel’ of the wire. But yes, worth a couple of practise sessions 😀

[@rustysgarden5011]

learning again..

[@timw2498]

How long have you been doing floristry? You look quite young, but, you’re amazingly adept at it!

[@FlowerJoos]

Tim W I have been in floristry for 35 years - so yes, a long time 😀 I will be 50 next year - still having hair and not too grey helps a lot 😆

[@steffiec6805]

How long do the orchids last on the headpiece? Thanks for the video! Exactly what i needed ❤

[@FlowerJoos]

With any work such as buttonholes, corsages or headdress then it’s best to make them on the day required or the afternoon before as essentially they are out of water. The orchids are a good lasting flower though. Just condition them well with a good drink beforehand 😊

[@almostthere3733]

The ring or circlet could also be used as a base for a large table candle or centerpiece.

[@vickiewelsch5522]

I needed this. Thank you. Question tho. What gauge of wire are u using to make the the flower crown?

[@FlowerJoos]

The thinnest rose wire is .28 and the slightly thicker one is .26. The green wire is .22 Hope that helps! 😀🙋🏼‍♂️
