Wedding Boutonniere
Lily Grass Accents
Lily grass is a favorite greenery of mine. I like using it in wedding boutonnieres, corsages, bridal bouquets and centerpieces.
Some of my competitors insist that you buy ten bunches at a time. I think this is excessive, since one bunch is enough for several corsages and boutonnieres. I allow my own customers to buy single bunches of greens and flowers, that way they can mix and match and buy only what they need instead of investing over $100 on one greenery.
Lily grass is broader and stiffer than bear grass
I laid the tip of one blade across the decorative wire loops.
Cut off at a sharp diagonal at the bottom of the grass, just above the curled wire tips.
Here's a side view showing the placement of the lily grass.
Tape into place with floral tape, securing it to the wire loops at the twist.
