Cut a willow twig to the size that you want the corsage to be
Measure the plastic encased partner magnate against the twig.
Score the outlines of the magnet into the twig with a sharp knife
Cut into the twig following the score lines
Carefully break away the top bit of wood
The twig is now ready to be hollowed out
Chip away at the wood with your knife or wood tools
Glue the partner magnet into the hollowed out space and test the other magnet to sit securely at the back
Design note: The Boutstix floral Magnet sit perfectly at the back of the design ready to be attached
