💐form the base of the flower crown by wrapping and shaping the wire around your head, where you want the crown to sit.

🌼make a small loop with the round nose pliers at the ends of the floral crown base. cut a long length of ribbon, and chop it in half. double knot each ribbon to wire loops.

💐disassemble your flowers. bend each flower down from its main "stem" and cut it off (easiest done with wire cutters) tear off any leaves or extra parts you don't want on the final piece.

🌼attach your flowers! wrap the flower stems to the crown base. snip a length of 28 gauge wire (six inches), line up the flower stem to the crown base and wrap the wire around both the flower stem and crown base to secure.

💐if your flower stem is sturdy and flexible enough, you can simply wrap it's stem around the crown base instead, or use hot glue.
