DIY Flower Crown Tutorial

I made a few flower crowns as photo props recently, and was surprised how easy and fun it was to make. Here is a quick tutorial on how I made my flower crowns. It’s fun to think about the flower and color combinations. I do not walk around the city wearing this but these are great for bridal photo sessions or instagram photos.

Material needed:

fake flowers
plastic headband
pliers (to remove the flower pieces from the stem)
glue gun

I would get a mixture of flowers in different sizes. I bought two big flowers and one flower wreath, which came with smaller size flowers and leaves.

1. Remove the flowers from the stem, using the pliers. I cut the flower as close to the bud as possible, so it would be easy to glue it on the black plastic headband surface.

2. Here is the picture of all the flower and leaf separated from the stems.

3. Add a small amount of glue on the back of flower, and stick it on the headband. Hold it for a few second until the glue drys.

4. Keep gluing the flowers and leaves until the headband is covered. I left about 2″ without flowers so that you can comfortably wear it. And you’re done!

P.S. You can purchase the crown from here.
