How to Make an Easy Orchid Boutonniere

Before you get started, you'll want to pull together what you'll need.

For each DIY boutonniere you want to make, you'll need:

• 1 bloom from a stalk of cream or white dendrobium orchid.
  
• 1 piece of variegated lily grass

You'll also need the following florists supplies, which can be found at most major craft stores (like Michael's or Hobby Lobby) or floral supply stores.

• 1 piece of soft-gauge cloth-covered florists wire
  
• 1 crystal-headed accent pin (optional)
  
• waxed florists stem-wrap tape, medium green
  
• 1 pearl-head boutonniere pin, 1.5"
