Order flowers for bouquets, centerpieces, and decor. Make sure to calculate a few extra stems for the boutonnieres. Keep in mind that while you are pruning down flowers for bouquets and centerpieces, you will prob have leftover short stems that you can use to make your boutonnieres&#8230;. especially with flowers that have multiple blooms per stem.<br \/>\n2. Once you receive your flowers make sure to hydrate them for at least 6-8 hours. To learn about flower care read this <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/pub\/flowercare.cfm\">flower care sheet<\/a>.<br \/>\n3. Prune down flowers to have a 2-3 inch stem.<br \/>\n4. Attach the greenery, we used <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/pub\/orderflowers.cfm?categoryid=92&amp;productid=1186\">variegated pittosporum<\/a>, to your main flowers (in this case the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/pub\/orderflowers.cfm?categoryid=90&amp;productid=95\">blue thistle<\/a>) using your stem wrap. When pulling the stem wrap, it will adhere to itself, making it is easy to use! It will also blend into the color of the stems so don&#8217;t worry if you don&#8217;t want to use ribbon over it!<br \/>\n5. Add your fillers\/ accent flowers, in this case, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/pub\/orderflowers.cfm?categoryid=90&amp;productid=2272\">statice<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bloomsbythebox.com\/pub\/orderflowers.cfm?categoryid=90&amp;productid=101\">waxflower<\/a>, and cover the stems with the stem wrap.<br \/>\n6. Once you are finished, you can wrap the stems with ribbon or fabric, then insert the corsage pins to make them ready to go.<\/p>\n<p>It is pretty simple, right?
