How to make a floral pocket square design
Ingredients – a mix of materials – we used small Santini chrysanths, gerbera, palm leaf, sedum, and ivy leaves.
A traditional buttonhole is a classic design for a male guest at a function, but the new kid on the block is the floral pocket square, replacing the handkerchief with floral design! It’s fun, it’s new and it’s actually easier for the man to wear as it has no pins or magnets!
Watch and see how we create this design – it’s not something we have made before, but it was fun and the possibilities are endless! It’s ideal for prom and in situations where you need to make a lot at once.
Let us know in the comment section below what flowers you would use or if you think this is better than the classic buttonhole.

Absolutely beautiful! Love this idea😍
I have an event coming up and I planned to do the pocket flowers. I am glad you did this video. Thank you.
WOW….VERY NICE ❤ ❤❤👌.
GOOD JOB.
THX FOR SHARING.

As an American I’ve never done this before! Still doing traditional boutonnières and the like on the lapel, definitely interested in trying this method though!
Fabulous! I much prefer these flower pockets to the traditional buttonhole.
I quite liked the silk flower one and the orchid one. I'm a fan of Singapore orchids. Another great presentation John.
Good idea💖🌺beautiful 🌹
Какой срок жизни этой бутоньерки? Цветочки без воды, всё таки.
What a wonderful idea. Just ❤ it. I don't like having to pen on boutonniere. Enjoyed the video very much.

Hello, John! Very interesting. I have to say I've never come across a floral pocket square. In fact, many of the boutonnieres or buttonholes here are often comprised of more than one bloom today. I'll have to look into this. Thanks for the interesting video, Friend. Have a wonderful week!
Like this very much. Easier for everyone. Traditionally, Pins can be tricky balancing the weight also.
Are you putting a natural flowers, with hot glue??
Last summer in Australia for my wedding work I did a combination of these and buttonholes. Often jackets are not worn here by the bridal party because of the weather, so boutonnieres on vests and braces are good with the pocket squares for significant guests (grandparents, godparents etc) both men and women. Great video instruction as always 💐
😍😍😍😍😍😍
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Your work is beautiful,
John, it is very hardworking,
I love it, 😍
it is a very good idea.👍🏻
Have a happy weekend
😎☀️🍦🍿

The traditional boutonniers have always been tricky for me to experiment with. Everything I learn is self-taught, but with your idea, I definitely see how this is more appealing for not only the look of the design but also for the ease of process for the designer. Can't wait to try it! Thank you for sharing your talents and ideas always! ❤️
Omg my daughter is doing this for her wedding! Thanks so much for the how-to
Here in Connecticut, I've never seen a floral pocket square at any of the weddings I've attended or created myself. I feel it's a better idea than the buttonhole because there are no pins and they won't fall off the jacket. Maybe a small bit of double sided tape in the back of the pocket square will also secure the pocket square.
Very Beautiful. 🥰👏🏻👏🏻Please do more videos about bouquet pocket. Greeting from Sydney Australia
I have made both buttonholes and pocket versions for family weddings and much prefer the easy construction of pocket squares. However, my experience proved the old adage that nothing emerges unscathed after the first hug. 😢 . Thanks for the tutorial, John!
fantastic work
So cute and creative.
Gorgeous! I hope I get to make one of these for a wedding–my son for one!
WOW, new and interesting.
How long in advance can you prepare the fresh ones? I wondered if they would wilt?
