In floral design, a hot glue gun is a handy tool that helps keep every stem and decoration exactly where it belongs. At DaVinci Flower – your Plainview flower shop on Long Island – our expert florists often reach for glue guns when assembling bouquets, wedding flowers, and event arrangements. We use glue guns to reinforce delicate wiring and secure heavy or awkward blossoms, complementing techniques like floral tape and wire. As our site notes, we pride ourselves on designing and delivering the perfect arrangement, and glue guns are one of the key tools in our toolkit.

Florists use glue guns in many creative ways, such as:

• Anchoring Thick Stems and Bases. Thick blossoms or wired stems (like lilies or heavy sunflowers) are sometimes glued into place for extra support.  For example, designers may hot-glue a wooden base or foam block to a sturdy stem so it won’t pull free.  This is especially useful in large arrangements where flowers can be heavy. A recent florist guide even notes that a “hot glue gun” is especially effective for attaching heavier flowers to their supports.
• Bundling and Binding Bouquets. When creating hand-tied bouquets or wreaths, a dab of hot glue at the base helps hold the bundle together before wrapping with ribbon or tape.  In a DIY project on wreath-making, experts recommend choosing a point at the base of the arrangement to “add some hot glue to help hold them together. We do the same at our shop: a quick glue bond can prevent stems from slipping as we shape the bouquet or swag.
• Attaching Decorative Accents. Glue guns securely fasten non-floral elements to arrangements. We use them to glue on bows, pearls, crystals, moss, or feathers.  For instance, when crafting a floral wreath, a florist might use hot glue to attach the ribbon and accent flowers so they stay put throughout the event.  Glue also lets us fix small blooms into hard-to-reach spots in boutonnières and corsages.
• Building Floral Crowns and Corsages. Wedding and prom floral items (like wrist corsages and head crowns) often require many tiny flowers assembled closely together. Glue guns make it easy to tack individual buds onto a base or wire. In fact, our Wedding Floral Design page lists “wrist corsages” and “bridesmaid floral crowns” among our offeringsdavinciflower.com, and glue ensures those delicate designs hold their shape.

Using a hot glue gun is especially helpful in creative installations. For custom wedding centerpieces, arches, or backdrops, glue guns speed up construction by attaching stems and foliage directly to structural frames. They also make it possible to add seasonal accents (pinecones, dried flowers, etc.) to preserved arrangements without flipping back to tape or wire. In short, whenever our florists need a quick, strong bond – whether binding a bouquet base or fixing a satin bow – the glue gun is a go-to tool.

Real-World Examples: Bouquets, Boutonnieres, and Weddings

At DaVinci Flower, we design everything from everyday fresh bouquets to elaborate wedding flower installations. Our services include bridal bouquets, boutonnieres, ceremony arches, table centerpieces, and more. In each case, glue guns play a supporting role. For example, when creating a bridal bouquet of fresh flowers (our Fresh Flowers selection includes countless roses, lilies, and more, we use glue to reinforce weak stems or attach ribbon wraps to the bouquet handle. Similarly, we craft matching boutonnieres and corsages by wiring tiny flowers and gluing their ribbon backings so they arrive perfectly intact.

Our wedding floral experts even use hot glue on large installations. For a flower-covered arch or stage backdrop, glue guns allow us to tack blooms and greenery onto the structure, ensuring nothing slides out of place during the ceremony.
