How to make an easy wedding Buttonhole/Boutonnière
__________________________________________________________
This week we’re turning to the smaller floral details for your wedding and showing you how to make an easy buttonhole/boutonnière.
For our buttonhole we’ve used a rose, sprig of eucalyptus and some hypericum berries. Choose flowers and foliage to match the colours and style of your wedding. Try to pick flowers that will hold up well to being out of water all day. You don’t want a droopy buttonhole on your wedding day!
Tip: Place the foliage you are using at the back of the arrangement. It will protect the flowers while the buttonhole is being worn.
You should be able to make your buttonholes/boutonnières the day before the wedding. Just remember to keep the stems in water overnight. We’d suggest waiting until the morning of the wedding before adding any twine or ribbon.
If you have a go at this DIY we’d love to see your efforts. Tag us on Instagram so we can admire your work!
