DIY: flower crown

Nothing fancy,nothing complicated!Lets just say this is a sort of reminiscence of my childhood play.A simple flower crown i used to make with my neighborhood kids when we were small.Still now,everytime i see these flowers in the field,I get pretty nostalgic.

And I’m not sure if u guys know the name of this flower,nevermind neither do i.But its plenty found in the open fields & meadows around Kathmandu.I remember when I was a kid,we would take our dogs for a walk in the fields and bring back home these flowers.We would make tiaras,bangles & all sort of bearings a princess would wear.The kind of feeling that made me think of The Princess & Frog Dog haha..That was a long time back and today when my little cousin brought home these flowers,i was back to being a kid again.

So,im guessing you want to make one of this too,right?Its easy-pisy.see below:

beautiful pattern init?

1.Make a little bunch & take a flower or two
2.Place the flower just below the adjacent flowers on top
3.Wrap the stem around the bunch
4.Bring the stem back to the same place after running the stem above the same flower & continue the same.

 

TADA!

You could also try with more colourful & big flowers,just remember cut the stem long if you are making by this version ok?

Talking of which,almost everyone is rocking the flower crowns this spring & It was seen plenty in this years coachella festival in palm springs,CA.I could write a whole post dedicated to the street style in that festival! hmm..looks like i found topic for my next post haha

These two friends rocked flower crowns w/ dreamy makeup looks — & smudgy eye shadow.Now thats what im talking 'bout!

So whether your going for a music festival or a trip for a day or so,,spend some bucks on the flower crowns or get crafty!Tuck it in your hair,wear your summer dress,feel like a princess & definitely be ready for some long glares ;) Who would have thought a mere childhood fantasy would turn to be a fashion staple!

Here's to a bloddy long week lol
