Quick Post: Floral Headband DIY

I recently made a floral headband using $5!

What you will need
  • floral tape
  • floral wire
  • flowers 
  • wire cutter
  • scissors
I picked up all of the supplies at a local dollar store. (I may have went flower crazy and spent a little more than $5.)

To create the headband, measure enough floral wire to wrap around around your head twice. The dollar store wire feels cheap, therefore I tried to create a thicker headband - you may not need to wrap the wire around twice. Then, wrap the floral tape around your wire, starting at the end to close the headband. 

Now for the flowers! You can pull the flowers off the stems, but I found it was easier to assemble the headband by cutting the stems shorter.
Arrange your flowers around the wire before taping them to the headband. 

If you find it difficult to attach the flowers with the tape you may want to use additional wire. Start by twisting the wire around the stem and then around the headband. Once your flower is attached, tape over the wire if needed to secure the flower in place. For the smaller flowers, I weaved the wire around the flower and headband. 


Hope you enjoyed this DIY!
Happy Spring!
