Wintery blooms

Well, as promised, the colourful flower crowns and wintery wreaths that Nia and I created last week. Who said flowers should only be enjoyed in spring/summer?! These beauties bring so much colour and beauty all year round and I've found that flowers actually last longer in a vase in colder weather. ;) 


Making flower crowns is really quite simple! Once you have made a circle out of thin wire to your desired size, secure the flowers and foliage in place by twisting florist tape around the stems. Continue until wire is covered and you have the desired look you are after and presto! Done! =) 




Then you need to find a nice friend who will be your model!


Get creative with beads and lace and just have fun! And the same basics apply for the wreaths too.






Once again, thank you to Nia for the photos! Hop over to Life & Co to have a look a Nia's post of this flowery day!
