DIY Floral crown
Everybody's rocking them this summer. The flower crown has taken the fashion world by storm and i for one am LOVING IT. Today we'll learn how to make this crown of glory. Here's what you'll need:
Plenty of silk flowers
Wire Cutters
Floral Wire ( thick )
Thin floral wire
Ribbon
STEP 1: Take your floral wire and shape it into a circle that fits comfortably on your head. I would suggest making it a little loose because the flowers end up making it fit a bit snugger at the end.
STEP 2: Begin arranging your flowers on the base and decide the general placement of the flowers prior to attaching them. Once decided, start from the back and begin working forward. Take your thin green floral wire and secure each flower into place by wrapping tightly around the base several times (or until you feel like it is secure).
STEP 4: For the larger flowers, there was not enough of a stem for me to securely attach it to the crown, so I improvised, and first went underneath the bottom of the rose and tightly wrapped the wire underneath the green base of the flower between the petals and the stem. Make sure to cut the wire long enough to be able to first wrap around the bottom of the flower as well as still wrap around the crown afterward.
STEP 5: Continue the process moving around to the front of the crown and to the opposite side. There is really no “right” way to arrange your flowers. Just play with it until you feel like they lie the way you like.
STEP 6: You can choose to wrap your flowers around the entire circle of the crown, or, like I did, only go 3/4 around the base. If you decide to only go 3/4, you can finish it off by wrapping the back with floral wire or ribbon. I decided to leave mine as it was because I liked the natural look of it. Voila! You have yourself a flower crown!
