  • Publication number: 20070101643
    Abstract: A boutonniere/corsage holder to secure a flower arrangement onto the surface of a piece of clothing, such as a lapel of a suit, is disclosed. The flower holder consists of a thin, elongated, flat body with opposing surfaces, a narrow central portion and widened end portions. The body is adapted to securely receive at the narrow central or entire portion, flower stem wrapping tape for securing the stem or stems of the flower arrangement to one of the surfaces of the body. An anchoring magnet is secured at or within one of the end portions of the body. A securing magnet is used to secure the body to the piece of clothing using the interactive magnetic attractive force between the anchoring magnet and the securing magnet. The magnetic attractive force is sufficient to secure the flower holder and a flower arrangement to the surface while still allowing the user to remove flower arrangement and flower holder without difficulty.
