DIY Leaf Crown

DIY Leaf Crown | The Merrythought Do you remember our fun floral crown from this summer? Well, obviously crowns are just the sweetest and I loved making that one so much that I decided to make one that’s more fall appropriate. The colors have been beautiful around here so I went out and scooped up some leaves and made myself a crown!

-Cut a piece of the floral wire that is long enough to go around your head and add a couple inches.
-Form it into a circular shape and twist the ends tightly around each other to secure.
-Select your first leaf and attach with floral tape. (It helps to lay out a plan of how you want the leaves to go on beforehand.) Continue adding leaves and wrapping the stems of the leaves until you get the look you want.
