Experiment with the placement of the corsage flowers before you cut or tape any stems. They can form a cross between an oval and a diamond shape, or they can be in a relatively straight line. Determine whether you want stems to show from the bottom of the arrangement. Use green floral tape to attach the stems of greenery and other filler items, such as baby's breath, to each individual flower. Arrange these elements as you would with a boutonniere baby s breath placed between the greenery and flower.
Trim stems as needed.
Begin to attach one flower to the next according to the pattern determined in step 6. Tape stem to stem as you go and wrap the stems completely with floral tape. Keep cut flowers cool and moist until you are ready to use them. Avoid picking up your flowers too far in advance. Use greenery and baby's breath sparingly.
