LOL...This is just hysterical! I love it.
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'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.

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

You got it, Cyndi!

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!
