Let’s make a corsage for a wedding handbag

Join flower farmer and florist Georgie Newbery of Common Farm Flowers between fashionable Bruton and up-and-coming Wincanton in sunny Somerset in south west England as she creates a beautiful corsage for the mother of the groom to wear on her handbag at a wedding.
It's July, and Georgie can't resist cutting too much material for this project. Join her as she shows you how to wire rose buds, how to choose material, how to think about size and style and longevity of different flowers and foliage which will spend the day out of water.
And have a go yourself. If you do make a corsage like this then do pop a picture on your instagram and #tag it #30stemchallenge and tag Georgie @commonfarmflowers and she'll share some of them on her stories.
Enjoy!
For an extended, ad-free version of this clip, all the info re 'the project,' and all Georgie's new clips with extra tips, news and regular live at 5s, do join her KZbin club. You can join up here: / @theflowerfarmer

I have watched many of your vids now and you are still by far my favourite presenters. The only one who would dare stand in front of a camera in her PJ's.🤣

[@ambethk77]

She really is just a joy to watch.

[@theflowerfarmer]

lol - sometimes you've got to just get on - if I waited till I got dressed the corsage wouldn't get made, the film wouldn't get made, the client wouldn't have her corsage... catalogue of disaster! x

[@theflowerfarmer]

thank you x

Just love watching you, you never know what you got for us. You have no problems in filming in what your comfortable in. You just keep my interest in your wonderful personality. Keep up the wonderful work , please never change it. 💕💐

Thank you so much! x

I just love watching you. I am such a geek for proper floral names and earthy organic designs. I dream of my little flower “farm” growing into the beautiful space you’ve cultivated. This was a wonderful piece - thank you.

The chinese forgetmenot matches your pjs. Lovely flowers, very pretty. Dainty work.❤

So true! thank you x

Beautifully done. In summer, I make a quick pass through my garden after waking while still in my pajamas before coffee. Must see what's new and needs attention! 💜❤🧡💚

Sounds great! x

“Very nice” is an understatement! I’m running out of adjectives to describe your work. Now, have my husband watching your clips. His question: “Is she self taught?” My guess is yes. I mean, one can learn how to use wire and raffia, etc. But you have an artist’s eye. In my opinion, that is a gift one is born with. 😊

[@theflowerfarmer]

Wow, thank you! Yes, definitely self-taught x

Very pretty bouquet.

I enjoy the pj's... question though... dark green silk bag? Green on green? Thought more color would have been in the corsage. Beautiful corsage BTW.

[@theflowerfarmer]

oh i love green on green and these fresh greens are so good against dark green. x

Would these principles also work for adding flowers to a hat? I've decorated my hat with flowers on a few occasions but sometimes they just look floppy before the wedding even starts! Thank you

[@theflowerfarmer]

yes - would work well for a hat x

@@theflowerfarmer Haha! I only knew because I raise it myself and find it absolutely gorgeous as a filler in my arrangements. I get stuck on names too.
