4. Attach the flowers to the wreath

Now it's time to attach the flowers to the wreath. Begin by tying the flower wire firmly on the outermost part of the steel wire. Take some flowers, wrap 2-3 times around the stems with floral wire. Then add new flowers and wrap them tightly. Remember to tighten well enough with the flower wire so that the flowers are stuck, but not too tight so that the flowers break. Continue wrapping in a few flowers at a time until the wreath is complete. Tie off the wire after the last round.

If needed, use small, discreet hairpins to hold the flowers in place. Pick seasonal flowers from outside or treat yourself to gorgeous blooms from the florist. We promise your hairstyle will impress. Perfect for all the summer parties!

Flower crowns

Flower crowns for the hair are a timeless and beautiful accessory that adds a fresh and natural touch to any look. Perfect for summer parties, weddings, confirmations, and other special occasions, flower crowns can be tailored precisely to match your style and colors. Creating your own flower crown is both fun and easy – and it offers a chance to make something unique and personal.

When making a flower crown, you can choose from a range of flowers: wildflowers for a more bohemian-inspired look, classic roses for a romantic style, or perhaps eucalyptus and green leaves for a modern touch. The main rule is to pick flowers that suit the occasion and complement your outfit. Smaller flowers often work best, as they lay nicely in the hair without becoming too heavy.

Making your own flower crown is a cozy activity – perfect to do with friends or family. You can gather over a glass of wine, find inspiration in each other’s ideas, and help get each flower positioned just right. Once the flowers are selected and arranged, follow simple steps: measure and cut the ribbon to fit your head, attach the flowers one by one, and adjust the crown so it sits comfortably and looks full.

A flower crown for the hair isn’t just an accessory; it’s a creative and personal decoration that brings the beauty of nature up close.
