May Day Crowns

 

Supplies:

Artificial flowers

Wire, any kind that is easy to bend, any color

Floral tape (It is green and can be found at any craft store)

Pastel-colored ribbon

Bobby pins

  

Directions:

 

Make the crowns out of wire. If the wire is thin, you may need to double or triple it.

 

Take the flowers apart. (Some of them pop off; some need to be cut.) Make sure they have about a 1-inch stem (enough to tape them on the wire)

 

Wind the floral tape around the start of the wire crown a few times (or tape it on if necessary) and lay down your first flower. Continue wrapping the floral tape around the wire and keep adding flowers.

 

Once you have gone around the entire crown with floral tape and flowers, secure the tape with some clear tape (if needed).

 

Add the ribbons by tying them on the back of the crown.

 

Use bobby pins to secure them on the kids' heads.
