Baby Boutonniere

When we were trying to plan our son's baby blessing (quite a while ago), I couldn't find anything unique or special for boys. They have amazing beautiful dresses and bows for girls but not really much for boys. I got  the idea of trying to make a baby boutonniere for him that he could wear. 
you will need:
fake greenery (I got mine at the dollar store)
scissors
ribbon
floral wire
hot glue/hot glue gun
a very small piece of felt 
safety pin

1. cut and arrange a few small pieces of greenery together. 
2. wrap them in the wire. I coiled it around the fake stem and then continued to curl it to make it look cool. 
3. tie a ribbon/bow around the wire.
4. hot glue a very small piece of felt to the back of the bouttoniere
5. safety pin through the felt, it just makes it easier to attach.

  2. Thanks for visiting my blog and your kind comments.
    I like your boutonniere. I know girls have better clothes but boys have way better toys.
