Flower Power

A flower crown is a must for any hippie in training! Just ask Pinterest!! Despite my lack of crafting skills I was able to, with the help from a friend, create an inexpensive and super cool flower crown quicker than you can say hippie-dippy-trippy-coachella-petchuli stink. Swearsies

[We started by wrapping 2 pieces of raffia wire together to our desired circumference. No idea if that's what it's actually called, but it looks like flower wire wrapped in raffia. You can find it in the silk flower section]

[We decided make the twists closer together because it looked cool. texture = good]

[We used wire cutters to keep the sharp edges from scratching.]

[We choose 2 different kinds of fake flowers, a main white one and then a smaller beige flower. We took off all of the leaves and some of the white flowers and added smaller beige petals to give it a little somethin' special.]

[We wrapped the flowers around our frame.]

[We kept adding stems until it was full and perfectly fairy-like!]

The finished product!!! For under 10 bucks, I think it's the perfect accessory for a photo shoot, a wedding, or whatever hipster music festival you're heading to next!!! Enjoy!!!
