Hi Maryjohn
Welcome to the club

I use these all the time for wrist corsages. First of all, wrap some stem-tex around the metal prongs to stop them showing through when finished.
Now wire up the corsage leaving the wires long, say 3-4 inches. Lay the corsage on the wristlet so the tails are between the clips and bend the clips over to secure the tails. Now bend the corsage through 180 degrees so it lays back over the clipped tail wires. if you want some stems showing, wire these in separately so they hang out the bottom end. You can now add ribbon or you could tie the ribbon on before the bendy stage. That's basically it, but if you fiddle about alolng those lines you will work out something that looks right. I'm sure others will do it differently, but that's one way of doing it.
