    Yay! I finished all my boutonnieres and corsages for the moms and grandmas.  The green ones are for the guys and the white and light greens are for the ladies.

    Those are really nice.  I love the colors and the little string details beside the orchid.

    Yes they are silk.  I bought them in Miami at a silk flower wholesaler called Chan's Silk Flowers.  I just googled it and they do have a website!! it's www.chansilkflowers.com

     

    this is the one I used for the guys

    http://chansilkflowers.com/catalog/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=2_81&products_id=1444

     

    only $5.88 and you can get 8 out of it.

    I also used a crystal garland that I took apart for the little pieces behind the flowers, but I don't see it on the website. 

    Then just wrap the little pieces of crystal wire around the stem, and wrap it with floral tape. Then attach a ribbon with hot glue starting at the bottom. I can do some better instructions later with pictures if these are too confusing.
