Wide brim straw hat
Several artificial flowers in varying size and shape

For small sprigs of flowers cut them around 2-3 inches
Prepare a hanger by threading twine or jute through the holes in the hat.
Determine the length you want and cut the twine.
Tie a knot and then slip the knot through the holes to the underside so that the knot will not show when hanging.
Glue flowers all around the base of the hat, leaving a spot opposite from the hanger open for a bow.
Start with the largest flowers first.
Continue to glue smaller flowers around the rim.
Add the sprigs of the smallest flowers on last.
Fold a lenght of ribbon about 20 inches long in half and glue the top to the opening on the hat.
Make a bow with two smaller tails using the floral wire.
