Instructions

    • 1

      Find daisies with long stems. The stems should be thick and strong. If you live in an area full of daisies, pick your own or use store bought daisies.

    • 2

      Use your fingernail or a toothpick to poke a small hole into the stem about 1/4 inch to 1/2 inch from the top of the daisy.

    • 3

      Pull this small hole apart, gently, using your fingernail or toothpick.

    • 4

      Thread a second daisy's stem through the hole you just created. Pull it tight.

    • 5

      Create a hole in the second daisy's stem and repeat, threading daisies through the stems until you've reached the desired length of your daisy chain.

    • 6

      Poke a hole in the stem of the first daisy in your chain and thread the last daisy's stem through that hole to create a wreath. You might add a small rubber band to keep the wreath together.

    • 7

      Weave the loose stems together, if you want.
