Prep Time5 minutes
Active Time25 minutes
Total Time30 minutes

Equipment

  • 1 Bunch of dried Star Flowers (3 oz bunch)
  • 1 Unfinished wood frame measuring 10" x 10'
  • 1 Roll of twine
  • 1 Glue gun with hot glue
  • 1 Pair of scissors
  • 1 Floral wire (using just one piece of wire)
  • 1 White paint of your choice

Instructions

  • The first step is to paint your unfinished frame. I needed two coats to cover. Start with your first coat covering both the back and front and allow 30 minutes dry time between coats. Once the frame is painted and dried it is ready for the flowers.

  • Next gather the flowers in a cluster and twist to create a fan of flowers. Adjust the height and the length of the flowers as needed.

  • Wrap the cluster with a 10" piece of floral wire to hold the cluster together.

  • With your hot glue gun, glue a 6"-10" piece of twine on the wire to cover it. Simply add glue to the wire and wrap the twine.

  • Cut the bouquet stems to fit the cluster in your frame. Add a simple bow over the glued twine then glue the flower cluster to the frame. I choose to place mine at an angle.
    place cluster in frame, glue and tie a bow of twine.
  • If your cluster is not fanning (spreading) enough, take your glue gun and individually add star flowers by angling them to create a wider fan.
