WHAT YOU NEED:

1. Select a color scheme. Choose colors that can be found on your dress or tuxedo, and make sure any additional accessories appropriately match you or your date’s dress. If unsure about colors, school colors are always an option.
2. Choose your flowers. Purchase flowers that are near bloom or pick them fresh (if you want to save some money), and leave them in water until you’re ready to make the corsage.
3. Preferably choose flowers that are somewhat sturdy, such as roses, orchids or daisies, as they will hold better throughout the night.
4. Choose your wristband. The flowers are the focal point of the corsage, but let’s not neglect the wristband. Try a corsage bracelet, ribbon or any band that fits snug on your wrist.
5. Pick any coordinating trinkets (if desired).

STEPS:

1. Trim the stems of the flower short with wire cutters or scissors .
2. Bind each of the flower stems with a wire and tape them together for extra hold.
3. Assemble base.
4. Place band in between two sections.
5. Form a bow out of ribbon.
6. Attach bow with the band and flowers.
7. Wrap it around your wrist and roll into prom!
