Flower stem gluing tutorial

1. Fold a piece of fabric in half and cut out a leaf shape. You should get two identical pieces. Repeat this step two more times using different fabrics.

2. Run a bead of glue down the center of the inside of the fabric and place the wire and then the matching fabric leaf on top and press gently. Cut access wire. Repeat this step for the remaining two leaves.

3. Glue the two lily blooms together.

4. Glue the three leaves to the back of the two lily petals, one slightly below the next.

5. Glue the lily leaf to cover the entire back of the boutonniere.
