The Savvy Girl's Guide To
Making a Floral Crown
When I first saw floral crowns blossom into trend, I knew it would be the perfect idea for a DIY. I, unfortunately don't share the same crafting streak that so many other inventive bloggers do. So I asked my dear web friend Kacie Cone from the blog Shy Girl Loud Voice to share her artistry with us and demonstrate the simplest way to make a floral headband.
Californian-raised, Portland-based Kacie is a talented singer/songwriter with a knack for bohemian style and a genius on the guitar. I hope it won't be long before we see her debut album in stores, or if not that first, a Free People campaign is most certainly in her near future. I will now leave you in the creative hands of the lovely Kacie.
Take it Away Kacie...
You Will Need:
All
you are going to need for this DIY is some flowers, a headband of any
kind that you wish,
a pair of scissors and a hot glue gun.
Step 1:
The
first thing you are going to need to do is pull the flowers off their
stems.
They should slide off very easily!
Step 2:
The next step is to cut off the small stem but beware because that small stem will fly across the room if your not careful!
Lastly
hot glue your flower directly on to the headband and make sure to
hold it in place for a couple seconds to ensure it sticks.
All Done!
And
that's it! As you can see from the pictures shown above, the possibilities
for your flower crowns are endless, so be creative and have fun!
Celebrity Inspired Floral Crowns
Celebrities have been paving the flower path with many different and endearing floral looks. You can customize the size and colours of a DIY floral crown to your personal specifications. Go dainty like Alexa Chung, Katy Perry and Kirsten Dunst. Try white daisies for an indie summertime look, as seen on Aly Michalka and Vanessa Hudgens. Or if you're particularly enamored by the trend, go big with romantic rose wreathes in pretty shades as Pixie Lott, Delta Goodrem and Lana Del Dey did.
Thanks so much to Kacie for doing this fabulous DIY. I hope you are also inspired to create your own unique floral fascinator using her easy-to-follow steps.

Good evening Sam! You have no idea how much I am craving for a floral crown! I'm always looking for one and of course I havent found any in the stores!:P I wish I was very good and patient with DIY jobs, usually I am so lazy! Thanks a lot for the tutorial from Kacie, I actually didnt know her and her blog, she is very clear and explained how to do the crown very well, I'd love to give it a try, though I dont know if I am able!:D A kind of the one Kristen Dunst wears is my fav!:) Kisses dear, hope your day is going fine! xo
Aw yay thank you! I'm so excited to be on Frills and Thrills! You made me sound so much cooler than I actually am lol
SUPER CUTE!LOVE IT!!!:)))
This is really sweet! And inspirational! I liked the one Kate Perry is wearing! Alexa Chung's crown is also sweet!
Very cute DIY. I would make a floral crown if I had a place to wear one. :)

Ah, I love Kirsten Dunst's crown. I definitely prefer the small and subtle to some of the giant ones like Pixie's. It's just a little too in your face for me.
Love it!

You know I'm mad about floral crowns so this blog post hit me hard! I wear one every Midsummer, but I also had one at my sister's wedding, if you still remember? Here it's also a tradition to wear a natural one in the sauna. Have you tried that? I would love to see you in one though...
