Materials Needed:
These days, you see all of these gorgeous chainmail head pieces... at exorbitant prices. Certainly these pieces are very beautiful, but for those of us more frugally minded Pagans, flower chains and crowns are much more economic.
The process of making flower crowns is a very simple, relaxing one. I love to sit in the field of my backyard in the middle of a buttercup patch (buttercups are great for this!) and make these. It may be a bit time consuming, but sometimes we just need to escape the non-stop, on-the-go world we live in and relax! This is great for that.
Pick up a flower and with the nail file, poke a hole in the part of the flower just under the blossom. Slip the stem of another flower into the hole, cutting the stem if you need to. Now poke a hole in that flower, and slip another flower 's stem into that hole. Continue until you have a chain long enough to sit on your head. To complete the circle, poke a hole in the last flower, and slip the stem of the first flower into that hole. From here, you can add more flowers, greenery, or even ribbons. Now you have a pretty circlet of flowers to wear in your spring and summer rites.
