Flower Lights

Hey everyone! Today I'll be showing you how to make these super cute, super simple flower lights! This D.I.Y. is part of my #flowerlandifulcrafts series that I am doing this month, so if you make these flower lights, share them with me on Instagram using not only #wonderlandifulcrafts, but also #flowerlandifulcrafts! And don't forget to follow my Instagram page @wonderlandifulcrafts for updates on what I'll be posting, and more! So let's get into the tutorial:

Supplies:
- artificial flowers
- string of lights (they can be a small string of lights with a battery pack like I used, or something like a string of Christmas lights. Really anything works.)
- scissors and/or an x-acto knife (You will need the knife for certain types of artificial flowers. I will show an example later.)

First, take your lights. Mine are from the Dollar Tree from Christmas, so I had to take off little snowflake-shaped pieces to get just the lightbulb part. Do the same if yours has something like mine.

Count the number of lights there are on your string, and find that many flowers that you would like to use for your flower lights.

Next, pull off the green part and the center (if there is one) of the flower. You may also have to cut it off with the scissors, but make sure that you don't damage the flower. (Note: When you take off the green piece of the flower, the layers of the flower will want to fall apart, which can cause them to fall off of the lights later, so you can secure layers together with a few drops of hot glue.)

Now, you will need the x-acto knife I mentioned before if you have any flowers like this sunflower:
You simply need to cut a slit in the center and make it large enough for the lights to poke through it.

Finally, just take each flower and push the lights through the center, and you're done!

I hope you guys enjoy making this craft!
Sincerely,
The Wonderlandiful Crafter
