Alrighty! So I made a corsage and a boutonniere for me and my guy for our 2012 anti-prom (rebels). Anyhow, I was lookin at a Rookie corsage tutorial and I said to myself:

“Well shit, I really don’t have the time or the money to by a corsage base”

So here is my zero dollar corsage tutorial just for you kids. 

Here’s what you’ll need:

• Semi-sturdy cardboard (pizza box, shoe box anything fitting the box vairiety typically helps)
• Hot glue gun
• ribbon
• Whatever crafty lookin shit you can find around your house.

So here we go:

Step 1:

Cut your cardboard into an oval type shape then cut two slits in it and paint it some color (black). 

Step 2: 

make a second ovular cardboard piece without slits and paint it as well. 

Step 3:

Feed the ribbon through the cardboard piece and hot glue the center of it to the middle piece between your slits. 

Step 4:

Glue the oval piece without the slits on top of this peice and you have your home-made cheap as fuck corsage base. 

Step 5:

Glue shit on. 

There you go girlies.

I also made my own boutonniere using a similar tactic with a pin back that was layin around my room.

Hope you enjoyed.
