absolute necessity for creating contemporary metal frameworks. Supporting armatures,
stabilizing mechanics, or simple metal accent - this wire makes it easy. 12 gauge,

anything and everything! Once you work with these new wires, you will find that you cannot

Florist
Wire
Floral Wire has a multitude of uses
with different gauges used for different purposes. The higher the gauge, the smaller
in diameter and more delicate the wire. A low-gauge wire like a 16 or 18 gauge wire
is used for supporting flower stems, binding florist netting around floral foam and
securing floral foam into a container. 21- and 22- gauge wires are a good all
purpose wire used for securing bows. 26-gauge wire is used primarily in corsage an
boutonniere making.

Corsage Tape
Used exclusively for corsage and wedding work, Corsage Tape is a non-sticky tape used to
wrap wired flower stems, and to tape flower stems together.
You activate Corsage Tape by stretching it as you wrap a flower stem. The
stretching briefly melts a wax layer in the tape and allows the tape to then stick to
itself.
Available in three colors; Dark Green, Light Green and White.

Crowning
Glory
Crowning Glory is like a hand lotion for flowers. It helps to seal the surface of
the blossoms and leaves of cut flowers, thus slowing the transpiration and water loss of
the flowers. Crowning Glory is excellent for use on corsages and wedding flowers.
It will also help to prolong the life of vase flowers. To use, you simple
spray a fine mist of Crowning Glory on your arrangement or corsage. Allow the
flowers to dry at room temperature for 15 to 30 minutes.
