Thrifty Thursday: DIY Flower Crowns

DahliaBday5

First off, I want to wish my now 14 year old niece & goddaughter, Jennalyn (shown above right), a Happy Happy Birthday!  I hope you have a great day!  She helped me, along with my sister, to make these lovely & super easy to make Flower Crowns for Dahlia’s 1st Birthday.  They looked great on everyone and we were able to make all different sizes.  I made about 40 of them and it cost me ~$1 per flower crown to make!

Here’s What You’ll Need:

– Decorative Wire ($9.99 – I bought 2 (pink & white))

Here’s How to Make The Flower Crowns:

Step 1:  Take apart the decorative wires into these bunches
