Homecoming Mum

I always enjoy a new challenge and this mum was definately one of them.  I had never made one before, so after watching various YouTube videos I ventured forth, and voila, a homecoming mum.  My son didn't want a very big mum because his girlfriend is rather petit, so he didn't want the mum to be overwhelming.  I think this worked out perfectly and she absolutely loved it which in the end was the most important thing :) 
There are some mums out there that requires the girl to wear a harness around her neck in order to keep it up ... is that really necessary?  Is the size of a mum relevant to anything?  Is it a measure of affection?  I've asked some of my American friends to explain it to me, and you guys, I had to laugh because the opinions go from one extreme to the other! :)
