Floral crown headpieces

My daughter and I have spent the past couple evenings making beautiful floral crowns for a school project. 

She came up with the idea to make these and I quickly jumped on the bandwagon. 


(she was less than thrilled to model for me)

Here are the supplies needed...

1. wired twine
2. floral tape
3. hot glue gun
4. wire cutters or heavy duty scissors
5. flowers

Step One...

Measure and cut wire twine (I wrapped mine around my daughter's head to get a rough measurement) add a couple of inches so you have extra to twist close. 

Step two...

Cut or pull off selected petals and stems. Use floral tape to tightly wrap stem to wire twine. In some cases our flowers had no stems so we hot glued them on. 

Step three...

Keep attaching flowers until completely covered.

The finished products...




We made a dozen of these which took us a couple evenings to complete, but I'm sure her classmates will love them!

I might have to make one for myself!
