This video 🤌👌 the info, the easy breezy technique, the little captions 🤣 it's a whole vibe. Thank you
Hello Kaili, thank you for the kind comment! I'm glad we could help you on your floral journey and give you a laugh. XOXOX, Ames
Thank you for this beautiful video! I am making 13 crowns next week, 1 for the Bride and 12 Flower girls (ALL my Grandaughters)
Your video is essential! I used the florist tape to put it on…then wired the whole thing after to secure, leaving a worry mess! lol
Your technique is so much BETTER ❤
We're so glad you found us!
Thank you for the video! My mother had me arranging flowers as early as four years old. When I was older, I took classes, competed in floral arranging competitions and worked for a florist, but my technique would definitely be old school. I love your simplistic mechanics and extraordinarily beautiful results. I have two baby’s breath crowns to do for a wedding in a couple weeks, so this was perfect timing! Your technique gets the same results in a lot less time. Thank you!
OMG, Kristen, thank you for the love! I'm always a bit self-conscious because I was self-taught so I do have more simplistic approaches that work well for DIY and new florists....but when I started trying the heavy wiring, and more advanced methods I personally found it put more stress on the product and took a lot more time. And then I went to an Amy Osaba floral workshop and she had a really simplistic approach and that made me feel a bit more confident.
Sorry, you did not ask for that Ted Talk, but all of that to say, I really appreciate your kind comment. The world needs more folks like your right now! XXXXX, Amy
The captions on this one made me snort laugh 😂 And you totally gave Kevin Costner + Maid Marian wedding vibes with that crown in the best way! Ha!
Bwahahahahah, YOU KNEW WHAT I WAS TALKING ABOUT!!!!! I was so dang thirsty for Kevin long before Yellowstone!
@@FlowerMoxie YES I believe that is where my love of flower crowns originated, and I was determined to have that Brian Adams song be my wedding song when I was 9 (spoiler alert, it wasn’t and I am still second guessing that decision ☹️) hahahah
@@kellic8665 LMFAOOOO, that became my parent's song. My big sis said they danced real close while chaperoning her middle school prom which is pretty much the cringiest thing ever for a 13-year-old!
@@FlowerMoxie Amazing 💀💀💀
Your large right hand ring is absolutely stunning!
Thank you so much! Here's a link where I got it, it was a steal!

Love this technique!!! Hallelujah I'm not dreading making bracelets like this for my upcoming wedding. 💃💃💃🤸🤸🤸😁
Thank you! Bracelets are such a fun idea!
@@FlowerMoxie yes!! I have been in this business for over 30 years and you are teaching me great things. I'm leaning towards retirement and I appreciate your humor and wisdom.
Can't stop watching this video
Please keep on sharing your ideas with us
Thank you for your kind comment!
I almost skipped this video, I'm glad I didn't....the work thoughts were perfection. 😀
Glad you enjoyed it!
Very helpful. Thank you.
the stem tape does take forever! thanks for the bullion wire tip!
It definitely helps speed up the process!
Yes. Love this technique. Thank you!
Glad you like it!
I just tried it out today as a trial for my daughter and it turned out beautifully! Was my first ever flower crown and making it was as simple as it looks. Thank you!
Yay! We're so happy to hear that!
This is my favorite UA-cam video ever. Why? Because I needed to learned something really quick and you accomplished that for me perfectly...WHILE making it hilarious. I loved the wit. Loved it 😂😂😂 thanks!
Yay! We're so glad you found us!
I am from Pakistan.....
This crown is amazing ....
I have been waiting for this ....
I'm so thrilled to hear that!
Thank you for this tutorial! New subbie here. I like the technique but it's really because of your sub-titles! I remember NY and Company. I love their style. Don't think about how much plastic is in your stomach because it'll take you down a rabbit hole.
Ha, right?!?!?! I'm so glad you found our lovin' arms, welcome!
i’m new to this channel, but i’m mostly here for the captions lol
Beautiful!!!

Ohhhh myyyyy, I want to wear this when I'm getting married😢 Its so beautiful!!!
Thank you!
❤great for a wedding.
We think so too!

So glad you found us, Debbie! Thank you for your kind comment! XXXX
Thank you! So helpful
Your video inspired me to become a florist. I'm in San Diego and don't know where to take classes.
We're so happy to be a resource for you! There's so much to learn when it comes to being a professional florist and everyone has so many tips and tricks!
Very nice
Thank you so much!
For the love of FLOWERS,
Ha, thank you! XO
your really beautiful energetically :)
Thank you, made my day! XXX
Great Video! I always use tape but I am liking the gold wire technique. I was curious how many stems did you use to get it so fluffy?
Oh man, the gold wire makes it so much easier and quicker! I'm not sure about how many little clusters I used, but I bet I could do about 3 crowns per bunch of baby's breath for that fullness. XXXX, Amy
@@FlowerMoxie Thank you so much for getting back to me. Thats what I was thinking. I have done delicate ones for little girls but just got an order for 30 crowns for a HS Cheer Squad for their homecoming. Although my daughters cheer had the big fluffy ones the girls did them on their own and I never paid attention. LOL. Love watching your videos. It is always nice to pick up techniques from other self taught talented floral designers. There should be a support group.
@@christinabozarth6358 So so true! I am on a few private floral groups on FB and it's really helpful when you need advice.
Is it possible to make one from dried wax flower? They're SO pretty 😍
Yes, that would work! Being dried it might shed a lot so you might want to spray it down with hairspray once you've completed your design.
@@FlowerMoxie wow! I never would have thought of hairspray 🤯 genius! Thank you!
Hi! how long do you think these can be made in advance (storing in the tupperware / hydration chamber of course :) )?
I've left flowers in a hydration chamber for over a week and they still looked baller. For an event, I could easily make these 3 days in advance.
I have not tried this method I would love to try this method with the gold wire which you are using
I love that thin gold wire, it was a game-changer, for sure!
Hi! If I wanted to make a baby breath long braid instead would you say requires the same material?
Absolutely! Same mechanics and technique, but a different design. That sounds so interesting, btw, send us a pic on insta!
What is the gauge of gold bullion wire?
The gold bullion wire is 28 gauge! You can also use Bind Wire or even pipe cleaners to create your crown base!
How many stems of baby’s breath did it take for this particular crown?
This one took around 6-7 stems!
Hello! Thank you for the tutorial! How long would you say it took for you to complete?
Glad you enjoyed! Making a flower crown isn't difficult, but it can be time consuming. Typically when I'm making a crown it will take me about 30-45 minutes with prep work!
thank you for the tutorial especially when you make itu, the camera so close to your hand.
Thank you, Susanna!!! XOXOX
is 22 gauge still good or i need 24?
You can use 22 gauge but it might be a little stiffer to work with. The thinner the wire, the more flexible it is and easier to twist. You can also use bind wire or pipe cleaners twisted together as your crown base!
what other flowers besides baby's breath would you recommend for this method? you mention wax flower... do you have any other suggestions for a bride's crown using this method? xx
You can use any flower type with small blooms and lots of texture! Wax Flower is a great one. You could try White Limonium or an all-greenery method as well!
I wondering the wire not being cover with the tape is going to uncontrollable
You'll definitely want to cover the wire with tape! This will make it easier for the flower sprigs to grip to the base while also making it more comfortable for the wearer. If you're leery about using wire as a base you can also use bind wire or pipe cleaners. You'll still want to cover either of these other options with floral stem tape, but those are other great options!
How to make baby breath garland
We'll add it to our list of requested tutorials!
They are real Flowers??
Yes!
Thanks for a great tutorial. How much babies breath do I need for one adult and 3 children? One child is only 2 years old.
Most likely you'll need at least 1 bunch of Baby's Breath for the adult crown and then an additional 2 bunches for the children's crowns to ensure that you have enough and the crowns are full. You most likely will have some baby's breath left over, but we always think it's better to be safe than sorry!
@@FlowerMoxie thanks for that!
Which is better for this regular or waterproof stem tape?
You'll want to use the stretchy stem tape for this!
Thank you!
Can you substitute lavender and use this same technique?
You could do this with lavender! It might be easiest with dried lavender since fresh can sometimes get wilty when out of water. But the technique will work perfectly for creating a crown with most florals.
About how long did it take you to make one?
You'll definitely go slower at first but the more you do the faster you'll get! Depending on the size that you need to make this can take between 25-35 minutes.
hi! how many stems were used in this one crown? they are so expensive over here and i don't want to spend more money than i need:-) it would be for a child. also can you do this weeks in advance? i will not have the time very close to the event....i'm laso doing the cake and many more things
For a child's crown you most likely would only need 1/2 a bunch of Baby's Breath. You'll want to make sure you measure their head first to make sure you're doing the correct size! Since the flowers won't be in a water source after you construct the crown, we recommend making the crown at least 2-3 days before the wedding and placing in a hydration chamber in your fridge. If you do need to do it a week in advance then we would recommend going with a faux option, which you could do at a time convenient to you!
Can I use fake baby's breath not real?
Sure, it might be harder to work with plastic, though. You could always opt for dried!
How long would it take to dry baby’s breath?
Is this really that easy to make? I refuse to pay hundreds for crowns and buttons
Flower crowns are easy to make they just can be time consuming! I would definitely say a Baby's Breath crown is the easiest type of crown to make!
