how to make a floral crownTo celebrate her 7th birthday, Clare invited a few friends on an adventure. An adventure which required floral crowns. Floral crowns that we could make fast and cheap, and cute of course!
how to make a floral crownHere’s how Clare and I busted through 5 floral crowns in about an hour, for under $3 each.

2. Cut a length of wire 2.5 times the circumference. Wrap the tail around the circle loosely, wrap both ends tightly around the circle to secure.

3. Cut a length of pretty silk flower garland to fit around the crown.

4. Starting at one end, use floral tape to wrap the floral garland to the wire. Leave branches loose like we did here or wrap them down for a tighter circle. Tip: stretch floral tape slightly as you wrap to make it sticky.
