Floral madness – 2 DIYs to pretty up your Women’s Day

floral-wreath-passionshake32 (1 of 1)I have a few, very important rules I live by. One of them is, whenever there are flowers, colorful drinks, girly fun and dancing on the tables involved, I’m in. 

Women’s day is certainly this kind of occasion so I’m looking forward to celebrate it big time. Do you have any plans? I’m going to London to visit my friends and have a girls night out. So far the plan involves: comedy show in the afternoon, bubbles, dinner and desserts, more bubbles, and then a night with continuous dancing like no one is watching. Well, knowing my dancing skills, it’s better that no one is.

Since all of us love flowers, there will be lots of them involved, I’m sure. In other words awfully pretty weekend ahead of us. If you have similar plans, you can pretty up the evening with these two DIY Girly – Flowery ideas. I’ll be taking some of them with me to London, it’s all about the little things, right? 🙂

DIY Flower cones instructions:

Cut the shape you see below, out of a brown wrapping paper and roll it, forming a cone shape. Secure outer flap of the cone with a tape. To make colorful endings – repeat the same procedure with previously colored white paper . Size of the colorful endings should be about 1/3 of the brown cone. Once you’ve got two cones, place one inside another and secure with a double sided tape.

DIY Flower Hairband

Take a wire and wrap it around your head to establish the right size for your flower hairband. Once you’ve got your size, choose your favorite flowers and start adding them to the wire ‘crown’, wrapping small pieces of wire around the flowers to secure them.

Are you going to be making some? What about the flowers hairband?

Nothing feels better than flowers in the hair, it’s the best accessory ever. As they say, I’d rather wear flowers in my hair, then diamonds around my neck.

Have a great day!
