D.I.Y Flower Crown

You will need:

> Craft wire

> Floral tape

> Synthetic flowers

> Craft scissors

TIP: Do this on a mat to make it easier to tidy up afterwards.

STEP ONE: The first step would be to measure around your head, then make a wire circle about the same size with 1 cm or 2 cm of extra length. The next thing you will do is wrap the floral tape round the wire to make it stronger and sturdier.

STEP TWO: After carrying out step one you then put the wire circle aside for later. Pick the bouquet of flowers you are going to use and begin cutting them off the joined stem. This must be done carefully and in a safe environment. Once you have done this arrange the flowers around the circle in the pattern you want to attach them in.

STEP THREE: Make sure you either memorize or take note of the pattern/layout you have chosen in some form (maybe take a picture of it) .Then, take the first flower and wrap the remaining stem around the circle itself. (The stem may need shortening but I would leave the minimum of 4 cm) Add more of the green wire to strengthen it and then tape it to the stem so everything blends in and the wire doesn’t show. Repeat this for each flower.

STEP FOUR: Once you have securely attached each flower to the base of the crown (The wire circle) Double check that everything is on properly, if it’s not then simply secure it. Once you’ve made sure everything is properly attached you’re done. You have completed making your personalized flower crown.
