My mom gave me the idea. Not sure how many I'll end up making, but it turned out cute. A whole vase full of these wands would make a cute display though! Whatcha' think?

Did you use a styrofoam ball inside?

Thanks

Yep, just a dowel rod glued in a styrofoam ball. I wrapped the dowel with ribbon and hot glued on the flowers. Simple as 1,2,3! It's not easy finding the right flowers though. And forget about making them in the fall/winter, there are NO spring flowers then.

You can! I have directions on how to do it, but it's in an e-book and I don't think I can repost it exactly. However, if can be done.

GORGEOUS! what a great idea! Did you glue the flowers straight onto the styrofoam (like when you do a flower hair clip) or did you use the little plastic stub?

I kept the plastic nubs on the flowers to poke them in some, pulled them out to put glue in and then placed the flowers back. Really didn't take long at all.

My dd is thinking she wants a fairy b-day party (I say thinking because it's changed a bazillion times). These would be so cute for a party favor for the girls to wave. Thanks for sharing.
