It’s great that you took a few minutes to check out the video! Hopefully, it will serve you well. Mastering the basics of wiring flowers properly is crucial to your success in designing corsages and boutonnieres and other flowers to carry or wear.

Where To Buy Floral Wire And Supplies

All of the floral wire and supplies you need to get started can be purchased in convenient packages that include green-enameled floral wire, tape and wire cutter, for less than $15 bucks on Amazon.

If you only need wire, the most commonly-used gauges are #22 and #26. They come in bundles of 50 or more pieces. Each piece is 16 inches long. Paddle wire will also work, but in my opinion, it’s not as convenient to use for wiring flowers for corsages.

Since you found this tutorial, I know you have at least a passing interest in learning basic floral mechanics. So allow me to introduce myself. I’m the guy behind this website, Greg Johnson. I have been in the retail flower business for more than 40 years, and have had the opportunity to work with a lot of budding floral designers.

The chief reason for having created this resource is to share some of the awesome floral design and technique tutorials I’ve come across.

But it’s not the only reason for me doing this. I started this site because I enjoy floral design tutorials (like the Wiring Flowers For Corsages presentation you just took a look at), and I honestly just wanted a place where I could comment on and share some of my favorites under one roof.

I also saw a lot of opportunities in creating a site like this. Why not just be honest, right?

I don’t see anything wrong with earning a little money from sponsorships and product recommendations. And I hope you don’t either.

I do want to disclose the fact that yes, I do make a little money from this site. But selling you stuff isn’t my goal here. If you get the itch to buy anything from any of my sponsors, that’d be great! If you’re just not interested, that’s fine too. It’s just really great to have you here.

I also want to invite you to come back again any time you want to! I’m just gonna keep sharing more videos which address general topics such as plants, flowers, and weddings. And I’ll take a deeper dive into these areas too.
