More DIY Origami Boutonnieres and some DIY Origami Corsages

For my grandmas, I created boutonnieres to be pinned to their blouses.  I used the same technique as in http://lwadamelon.blogspot.com/2013/03/diy-origami-boutonnieres.html   But, I used 3 smaller flowers, instead of one bigger flower.  In addition, I added another crane to act as a leaf, and I used a longer piece of chopstick. 

Please excuse the lighting in the pictures below (I was still learning how to use our camera at this time).

For my mom and mother in law, I created corsages.  I used 3 smaller origami flowers, as well.  First I made a circle, using thick cardstock.  I glued the smaller origami flowers to the top of this.  Under it, I glued 3 origami cranes (without the neck and head folded up) - to serve as leaves.  I also glued some elastic I had.  Under the elastic, I glued another circle to cover the 'leaves' and to hold the elastic in place.
