Corsage Pin: Tutorial

by

corsage pin I once ran across a brooch like this on a very soft unassuming tee-shirt at Portabello Road Market in London.  That particular one also had some draped strands of small faux pearls and chain, to give it a little “edge” – but the shirt was too small and the price tag too big.

So I was very glad to run across this tutorial on My Mama Made It.  There are easy to follow instructions and good photos as well. Who knew that getting this look could be so easy. Plus My Mama Made It also includes styling ideas as well for how to wear this corsage.   So eat your heart out pricey London Designers!
