How to Wear Your Wrist Corsage

Your corsage is attached to a soft “slap” style bracelet that gently coils to fit your wrist.

Step 1: Remove from the Box

Open the clear box carefully.
Lift the corsage out gently, supporting it from underneath the blooms.
Avoid grabbing or squeezing the flowers from the top.

Step 2: Open the Bracelet

Hold the bracelet at each end.
Gently straighten it so it opens fully.

Step 3: Place on Your Wrist

Position the flowers on the top of your wrist, like you would wear a watch.
Lightly tap the bracelet around your wrist and allow it to softly “snap” into place.

That’s it! It should feel secure but comfortable.

How to Wear Your Magnetic Boutonniere

Your boutonniere is designed with a hidden magnet attachment — no pins needed.

Step 1: Remove from the Box

Lift it out gently, supporting from the stem area.
Avoid handling the delicate blooms as much as possible.

Step 2: Separate the Magnet

On the back, you’ll see a small magnet piece.
Slide it away slowly and gently — do not pull straight off.

Step 3: Position the Boutonniere

Place it on the left lapel, just above the heart.
Angle it slightly so it follows the natural line of the jacket lapel.

Step 4: Secure the Magnet

While holding the boutonniere in place, gently pull the lapel fabric forward.
Place the back magnet behind the fabric so it connects with the front piece.
Adjust slightly if needed.

You’re all set!
