Flower crowns

Lots of people think that making flower crowns is very hard, Actually it's very easy. there are two types of crowns there is a headband and a crown.In a headband the wire is tucked under your hair and the flowers are on top of your head. In a crown the flowers go all the way around your head. My mom also wrote a post about this on her blog.

1. pick flowers, we got a bouquet for $3.99 at Trader Joe's and picked flowers from our garden.

2. Other than flowers you will need floral tape, scissors and  wrapped floral wire. (you can find it at most craft stores.)

3.take the floral wire and measure around the persons head, cut it to how long it needs to be. Then take the two ends and twist them together and wrap it with floral tape.

4.take the flowers and cut them so that the stems are about 2 inches long.

5. cut several pieces of floral tape.

6.start with one of the biggest flowers and use floral tape to attach it to the crown.

7. keep taping flowers to the wire, until it's done!

                                   

Here are some pictures of me in a flower crown!

sick day

Today my brother Gabe with a sore throat and a headache, so he is not at school.


It is harder to do my schoolwork because Gabe constantly makes jokes and does funny things.


We made a playlist because we are driving to California soon and we were thinking it would be nice to have some music. We were dancing all morning listening to our favorite tunes.


 He's making chicken broth for his sore throat and pretending to make tea and crumpets.


 Gabe and I are cleaning the house for our mommy because we are just good kids like that.


Gabe reads the comics even though he is supposed to be cleaning.




I hope Gabe gets better but I wish he stayed home everyday because Gabe is such an awesome, nice, funny, helpful, silly pleasant brother. Get well soon Gabe!
