Step-by-Step Instructions:

Wrap the wire base with green flower tape to cover the wire and secure the flowers and greenery.
3. Attach Greenery:
Use the hot glue gun to attach pieces of greenery around the wire base, overlapping them slightly for a lush look.

Arrange faux flowers on the crown and secure them with the hot glue gun. Use small pieces of flower tape for extra security if needed.
5. Fill in the Gaps:
Continue adding flowers and greenery until the crown is fully covered. Make sure to fill any gaps for a balanced appearance.
