Sustainable Design Mechanics for Wearables: a Boutonniere!

As a Mayesh Design Star I had the opportunity to share with you all some of the tips and tricks I have for being as simple and sustainable as possible. In this video from the Mayesh Design Star Series, I show how to use unpainted wire (I call it naked) and organic non chemically treated dried moss to support flowers and foliage into creating a wearable boutonniere.

Take a look at the video here via the Mayesh website.

or follow the link here to see it on youtube.

Here is a list of the ingredients I used for the boutonniere:

flowers:

mini calla lily in white

strawflowers in peach

freesia in blue

Hopseed foliage in purple

Jubilee leucadendron

tools: 

organic natural dried moss

cotton or hand dyed silk ribbon

copper wire small gauge

aluminum wire small gauge

needle nose pliers

clippers

water vase
