Fairy Flower Crown
Dress up as a fairy with this fun, floral crown.

Materials Needed:

  • 2 Pipe Cleaners
  • Plastic or Silk Flowers
  • Ribbon
  • Hot Glue Gun and Glue
Instructions:
Twist one end from each pipe cleaner together. Hold it around the upper part of your forehead and then twist the other ends together. This will make the base of the crown.

If necessary, gently cut/separate the flowers from the main stem. Leave an inch or two of each stem on the flowers if possible. You can also leave some leaves, or use them separately if that works better. Glue the flowers and leaves around the pipe cleaner. Use as many or few as you want.

Once you get the flowers how you want them, you are ready to add the ribbon. Cut 8 - 10 piece of ribbon; all different lengths, between 1 and 2 feet long. Glue one end of each piece of ribbon to the inside, back edge of the flower crown. If desired glue a flower to the other end of the ribbon.
