  Step 1

  Gather 2–4 small sprigs of assorted flowers, cutting and leaving each stem no longer than 3–4 inches. Pinch the bunch and the moss-covered wire together with your thumb and index finger. Hold this bunch together while preparing to form a flower chain.

• 

  Step 2

  Use a 10- to 12-inch piece of florist wire to secure the first bunch to the moss-covered wire by wrapping the two together, moving in a spiral motion two to three times around.

• 

  Step 3

  Clip another group of 3–5 flowers to add in.

• 

  Step 4

  Continue adding small bunches of flowers to the growing chain and securing them with florist wire, wrapping each new bunch one to three times before adding another.

• 

  Step 5

  Create a pattern of your choice as you add each new bunch of flowers.

• 

  Step 6

  When you reach the desired crown length, because the flowers are secured to the moss-covered wire base, the entire chain will bend very easily, yet still remain sturdy.

• 

  Step 7

  Once you have reached the desired crown length, cut the stems at the ends of the crown to the same length (about 1 inch away from the last piece of wrapped florist wire).

• 

  Step 8

  Then, create a loop with the excess moss-covered wire, which will be used to cover the ends of the crown, hiding the stems and florist wire.

• 

  Step 9

  Wrap the moss-covered wire from the base of the loop and around the cut stems for additional security on each end of the crown.

• 

  Step 10

  Cut 2 pieces of ribbon, 1 yard each. Fold each piece in half and feed one through each loop you just created, pulling through to create a knot on both sides.

• 

  Step 11

  The ribbons will allow you to adjust the crown to fit on your head, no matter what hairstyle you choose.
