Happy Friday darlings! Today Iโ€™m finally sharing this DIY orchid crown with you!  I actually took a poll on Instagram a few months back with the red one I took on my Panama vacation and 85% of you said youโ€™d like the tutorial. The other 15% of you better not be reading this post ๐Ÿ˜‚, just kidding!

I think this crown is actually perfect for Fall because orchids tend to start blooming during this season. Anywhoo, letโ€™s jump right into the steps and as always, I made the project super easy for you to tackle so I hope you enjoy!

SUPPLIES:

  • Scissors
  • Headband  
  • Raffia  (same color as headband if possible)
  • Faux orchid stem 

ALL SUPPLIES ARE AVAILABLE IN MY AMAZON SHOP HERE

STEP 1

Begin by forming the shape of your orchid stem to match the shape of your headband.

STEP 2

Once youโ€™ve figured that out, go ahead and cut off any extra stem remaining.

STEP 3

Using your raffia, form a loop around the orchid on the headband and pull the loose ends through to secure in place. Once thatโ€™s done, go back and forth wrapping and knotting the raffia to secure that area of the stem in place. 

STEP 4

Trim any excess bits of raffia string remaining and secure the tiny knots with clear nail polish (not pictured in supplies). This will ensure your raffia doesnโ€™t come undone. 

STEP 5

Using your glue gun, secure areas in between with glue, pressing and holding while the glue dries. After everything is dry, youโ€™ll be set to wear your crown! ๐Ÿ‘ธ๐Ÿฝ
