INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO MAKE

Pull apart your Lei and place it flat on a table in groups of sizes and colours

Start arranging the flowers on the ribbon to make your design. Start with one in the centre. Once you are happy with your combo, glue it to the ribbon.
Glue craft gems to the centre of each flower to finish the headband off and add some sparkle for a true Fairy look.
