Having Fun with Mums

Readers Weigh in on New Homecoming Mum Corsage Trends

My Ten Commandments of Homecoming Mum Corsages has a pretty funny thread going on. I thought you might enjoy it.

Feel free to join in the fun and leave a comment of your own.

I'm not sure if we have the homecoming mum tradition here, but I'm going to call a friend of mine who covers sports here for a local station and ask. If we do ... I am going to make sure he gets pictures for me!

I said ... I'm glad you enjoyed my tongue-in-cheek directions for making a Homecoming Mum Corsage :-D

I don't know if the tradition has reached Kentucky yet, but it is definitely spreading far from its Texas/Oklahoma roots.

Maria said... LOL...

Cyndi L said... ABAHP...as big as humanly possible. That's what I've heard ;-)

I said... You got it, Cyndi!

andrea said... Can you take multiple single round backings and connect them to make one big round backing? If so how?

I said... Well yes, I suppose you could. But who would wear it, Andre the Giant? LOL.

But seriously, I have seen a double corsage with a larger mum on top and a smaller one attached below. That was done by cutting a backing and matching cover shield slightly smaller and downsizing the floral arrangement to fit them.

To do a really large single corsage, I would use plastic canvas and cut out a single large backing and matching cover shield (rather than stapling "multiple single round backings" into a larger circle).



I find it really fun to see what new and creative ideas my readers come up with - whether it be for Homecoming Mum Corsages or any other craft category. Creativity is what it’s all about!
