Do-It-Yourself Feather Boutonniere

June 26 | By Fritzie

A DIY non-floral boutonniere project from Aimee Dupont that comes with a list of materials you’ll need and instructions that are simple enough to follow. This was featured through Ruffled and we are gladly sharing it with you here. A great alternative to real flowers and something for keeps!

Instructions:
Step 1. Gather all of your neat supplies and items you have collected and bring them to your workspace. Get ready with your glue gun as well!

Step 2. Begin by choosing anything with stems that you will be using for the boutonniere such as leaves or faux berries. Cut/arrange the stems into a position that you like. Take the wire from a stem or floral wire, and begin to wrap around the rest of the wires. You may also use a floral pick or toothpick to wrap the wired stems around. Using a hot glue gun, neatly glue down items without stems such as feathers, ribbon, lace, flowers, or whatever else you plan to use into their desired positions. Only a small dab of glue will be needed to adhere your items down, this will ensure the glue is not visible on your completed boutonniere.

Step 3. Once all items are in place, take your floral tape and begin to wrap it around your stems until they are no longer visible. You may want to adjust the length of your stems by cutting them slightly shorter. The average size boutonniere is between 3-4 inches long from top to bottom.

Step 4. Once you have chosen your matching ribbon, glue one end of the ribbon at the top of your wires neatly. Glue down so that the ribbon is angled downwards and slowly begin to wrap your ribbon around the floral tape covered stems. The floral tape is sticky but not stick enough to hold down the ribbon so be sure to wrap around snugly.

Step 5. As you make it to the bottom begin to wrap back up the stem neatly as this will be the pattern you see. Again, pull snugly and space the over lapping ribbon as you desire. For additional embellishment you may add a thin string, or colored wire up the ribbon covered stem for an extra pop of color. Here, you’ll see a little piece of lace tied in a knot.

Now, you’re all done and ready to impress everyone with your unique boutonniere!
