I think most of you are aware of my obsession with flowers. I usually have an abundant amount of them in the house. I am also so lucky to have a man who feeds my addiction. This morning B sent me all these flowers and I have been on cloud 9 ever since. As I was putting them around the house, I thought this would be the perfect day to make some flower crowns.
Of course you will need your choice of flowers. I find that flowers with smaller buds are easier to work with.
You will need a scissor, a floral wire and floral tape.
Twist two wires together to create a circle. Put it on your head to make sure it fits. I like to put floral tape around the parts where the ends are sticking out.
Now all you have to do is cut the flowers and tape them around the wire with the floral tape. You can either go all the way around the circle or just do it half way like I did here.
Quick and easy.
Do you realize how much bribing I had to do to take this one picture?
Lily, on the other hand, is always ready with a pose.
Love,
Victoria
Beautiful, Victoria. I do know! My daughter was in the garden with me, but not for pictures, and all I captured were her skirt and legs. And guess what she was wearing! She was wearing a ballet pink tule skirt that we bought in Austria last year; it goes to her knees and she paired it with a tee that has a deer on it. The photos only get less for a while. I love your crowns, and will have to make some. How wonderful to have a man that sends you flowers all the time. xoxo Su
ReplyDeleteSo Lovely Victoria!
ReplyDeleteFlorals just seem to agree with you, and all your models look beautiful in them.
ReplyDeleteMakes me truly want to fill my home with the scent of flowers.

The photo of Lily with a floral crown is so so beautiful. Your abundance of roses...heavenly. xo
ReplyDeleteYour daughters are so precious...and the pooch. Someday they'll be happy to have these small reminders.
ReplyDeleteWhenever I see a pretty mixed floral bunch of shades of pink I think of you! I can imagine just how divinely fragrant your home smells with all the flowers gifted by B. Very sweet man, who knows how to grace your heart. Your crowns are pretty and the girls look adorable wearing them with their Tutu's. Lily is a perfect model. Victoria tonight House Hunters international had an episode filmed in your homeland, looks so beautiful there. Please take tons of photos to share when you and your daughters visit this Summer.

Thank you for the tutorial. Love your models!
ReplyDeleteLovely post! I will try this too. Especially like your little puppy. She has such a nice profile and looked almost as if she felt proud of her crown! Like meant to wear one everyday proud. Hoping when you are back from your trip you will give us more Burmese recipes. I am craving the recipe I used that you gave us and hope to make it soon again.
ReplyDeleteVictoria,
ReplyDeleteYour daughters are so adorable. You really should submit their pictures to an agent for modeling. They are so gorgeous. Love the rose crowns. They are sooooo pretty.
Kris
Oh, I'm so happy to see that you got both girls to pose for you...they are gorgeous, as always!
ReplyDeleteAnd I cannot believe how much your Lilly looks like our Gucci! What breed is she? Gucci is a schichon..you should pop over and see him sometime!

Your daughters are sooooo BEAUTIFUL! LOVE to get your posts. Pics are beautiful and you are so creative.
ReplyDeleteThese are beautiful! Lily looks like a shabby chic princess pup. When my daughter was little she made ivy crowns for herself and her friends. She spent so many summers running around barefoot, dirty feet with an ivy crown.

Oh be still my heart. Your flowers are magnificent Victoria and your daughters are so so beautiful. You did pretty good at bribing them because the picture looks perfect..
ReplyDeleteI need to get myself one of these crowns.
Wishing you a wonderful week,
Janet
