How to Make Your Own Single Stem Bouquets

By Family & Relationships Last updated Friday, July/12/2024

1). Place some floral foam inside a bouquet holder with a handle. Use scissors to cut the foam to size. The floral foam and the bouquet holder can be purchased at any craft store.
2). Cut the stem of your chosen flower 3" long and insert it in the center of the bouquet holder, making sure it sits snugly in the foam.
3). Choose eight pieces of greenery and cut the stems 3" long. Evenly place them around the flower in the holder.
4). Select four stems of baby's breath and place them in the holder--one on each of four sides of the flower.
5). Tie an 18"-long satin ribbon, the color of your wedding's theme, at the top of the holder--the base of the flowers. Create a bow with large loops. Let the remaining ribbon hang down.
