There are some occasions that require you to give a corsage to someone. Among them are proms, birthdays, and weddings. Sometimes you do not want a traditional corsage that is pinned to the chest for a variety of reasons. The flowers are not where they can be seen and others find it a bother being so close to the face. Then there are those who don't want to be pinched by the pin should they move the wrong way. Wrist corsages are the answer. The flowers are attached to a couple metal clips that are attached to an elastic band, worn as a watch or bracelet.
Take your flowers and divide them into two groups. Tea roses and carnations make very pretty wrist corsages, but any flowers will do fine. You are going to lay the two groups so that the stems meet in the middle and you have flower heads on the right and on the left. They will be laying opposite each other. Use the floral tape to wrap the stems together.
