Flowers by Ellie

How to make it:

1. Using a tape measure or piece of ribbon, measure the circumference of your head at the point you’d like your flower crown to sit. Don’t worry if it doesn’t match exactly as your ribbon (which will be added in the final steps) can be adjusted.

2. Next, make your wire base using floral stub wire and flower tape — both of which can be obtained from our family-run flower shop in Bembridge. Take two wires and cut them both roughly to the measurement you just took of your head. Then tape the two wires together, from one side to the other, just leaving a little bit of room at each end to make a loop to which your ribbon will be tied. Ensure any sharp edges are covered by the tape.
