Flower Crowns

Flower crowns are gorgeous accessories that are perfect for Music Festivals, spring or summer parties, or for those "just cause" days.

There's a lot of great YouTube videos and blog posts about DIY Flower Crowns. They're super easy and quick to make. And it all depends on what style you're interested in. Below are some of the sites I looked at before making mine.

"The Earth laughs in Flowers."
-Ralph Waldo Emerson
Supplies:
-Elastic Headband or plain regular headband
-Hot glue gun
-Fake or Fresh flowers (WITH leaves), can be bought at any craft store (Michael's)
Instructions:
-Depending on how thick the stems are from the flowers, you can choose to incorporate those by twisting them around the headband, or cutting them off.
-I cut them off
-Simply glue the flowers you'd like onto the headband, giving just enough room for petals to touch between flowers.
-Glue the leaves as "fillers" under/between the flowers. 
-Let it cool/dry and voila! You've got a gorgeous flower crown. 

Please let me know if you have any questions! 
But I am not a pro, you can easily google or check the video and site above for tips :)
