Add some flower cuteness to your garden with this simple project! There is little to no cost to make one. All you will need are some assorted beads, a glass dome bead, wire, and hot glue.

Total Time: 20 minutes

Supplies:

assorted beads
pliers/wire cutter
glass dome bead
16g craft wire
hot glue
scissors
paper

Steps:

Figure out the placement of your beads. (Glass dome bead is used as the center and smaller beads surround it).

Hot glue beads around the glass dome bead. Continue gluing beads to the dome bead until you finish going all around. Repeat this step if you want to make more flowers.

Optional - Use a piece of scrap paper, cut a circle shape to cover the back of the glass dome bead. Since the dome is clear, when placing the craft wire behind you can see the wire and I don't want that.

Cut desired length of wire for your flower stem. (I am using 16 gauge craft wire, use any wire you have on hand.)
