How do you make a simple flower crown?

Follow the instruction below to make one of our stunning DIY childrens flower crown kits.

Your flowercrown magic kit contains:

• 7 beautiful artificial flowers
• Beaded florists wire
• Florists tape
• Leaf vine ribbon

First of all arrange the flowers in the pattern that you want them to appear on your flowercrown

Measure the wire around your head and hold the wire together where it meets

Hold the wire up and you will see a shape like a fish!Wrap the ends over the wire so that you make a circle shape

Take a piece of tape and rub it between your finger and thumb until you feel it go sticky

Use the tape to fasten down and cover the scratchy end of the wire.

Remember to RUB the tape, WRAP it over the wire and SQUEEZE it together

Do this for both ends of the wire.

This will be the back of your flowercrown

Take your first flower and place it against the wire

Use the tape to fasten the flower to the wire

Start the tape as close to the flower head as you can

Work your way down the stalk with the tape, remembering to RUB, WRAP & SQUEEZE

Take your next flower and repeat.

Take care not to place it too close to the first flower so that it doesn’t get squashed

It’s best to work in-between the beads

Keep going until you have stuck all of the flowers onto the wire

Now its time to add a ribbon!

Find the middle of the ribbon by folding the ribbon in half

Put the middle of the ribbon over the middle of the front of the flowercrown

Doing one side first, wrap the ribbon under and over the wire in-between the flowers and beads.

Stop when you get to the middle of the back of the flower crown

Use a piece of tape to fasten the ribbon to the wire

Leaving a length of ribbon dangling down

Repeat this on the other side

So that all of the wire is covered and the ribbons are trailing at the back

Ta-dah! You have now finished making your beautiful flower crown

Put it on and see what an amazing job you have done
