How to make a flower crown

Strolling across the festival field, I noticed a couple of big daisies and loads of clover.

I'm not averse to a bit of festival chic but it's a bit chilly for short shorts and too dry for wellies, so a flower crown it is.

How to make your flower crown

Using the daisy chain principle works well with clover, although you need to press a bit harder with your thumbnail. 

Never made a daisy chain? Pick some, then press your thumbnail vertically through the stem about halfway along. Repeat with next daisy, and the one after that. Thread the stem of the last daisy through the stem of the first to make a circle. Put on head, or hang up until needed.
