Have flowers all summer long with this easy-to-make wreath.
Crafting Time: 30 - 60 minutes
Materials
straw wreath base
This can be any shape or size. The sample is a large heart, as I found the base at a garage sale.

variety of silk flowers
The larger your base, the more you will need. My flowers were also a garage sale find, when a crafter was cleaning out her inventory.
scissors and (possibly) wire cutters
straight pins
wire or dental floss
Instructions
Use scissors to remove flower blossoms from stems. For some stems, you may need to use wire cutters.
Use straight pins to attach the flowers to the front and sides of the wreath. Completely cover the straw and place flower types and colors randomly to create a flower garden effect.
Cut a piece of wire or dental floss. Tie this to the top of your wreath to create a loop for hanging.
