Corsage

[Vanquisher]

Ryan's girlfriend is allergic to most flowers. She's wearing navy/silver to prom.

I'd like to help him make a corsage. He liked this one:



Where can I source this stuff, how do I make it, or where can I buy something similar?

Etsy for purchase. Hobby Lobby or a bead/jewelry store would be your best bet for in-person supplies. http://www.jenlyfavors.com/mini-plas...0-flowers.aspx

As far as actual assembly - lots of hot glue and wire

The above advice is good. If you don't feel up to making it yourself and he really wants one just like that, you can always find an etsy store with similar items and ask if they can make one like that. My only hesitation is that looks REALLY big and mind be cumbersome to dance with... heavy... He might want to go with something a little smaller or up and down the wrist.

This etsy site seems to be similar to what he wants and if you email them, they might be able to produce it.

Also, this place has similar... but it all depends on what you want to spend.

Also, are corsages what most kids do for prom at his school? I know it varies from place to place, but nearly every girl at prom when I was in HS had a nosegay/tussie-mussie.

I had to Google what that was!

Oh crap. How am I supposed to know? No way my son knows that!! I'll look in his yearbook when we get home I guess.

I'm sure the school Secretary knows the tradition or someone who chaperones often who could tell you.

If GF is a senior, what did she have last year?

[Vanquisher]

I think flowers that she's allergic to.

Right, but was it a pin corsage, a wrist corsage, a nosegay/bouquet? What configuration?
