Instructions To Make A Sunflower Flower Girl Basket :
1. Wrap your flower girl basket handle with the 1 inch wide satin ribbon. Make a diagnonal overlapping pattern. Use the glue gun to make the satin become permanently part of the handle.

2. Use the satin ribbon to cover the outside rim of the flower girl basket. Use the hot glue gun to permanently affix the ribbon in place.

3. Use your thick white satin ribbon to tie a simple flowing bow. Add a tab of glue to the back of the center of the bow and affix it to where the handle meets the main part of the flower girl basket. Repeat of the opposite side.

4. Lay your green flower sponge inside the bottom part of your flower girl basket.

5. Cut your daisies to the appropriate stem sizes, so that they fill out the center and sizes of the flower girl basket. Poke the stems into the green flower sponge.

6. Take two medium sized sunflowers and drape them over the opposites sides of the handle facing away from how your flower girl will hold the basket.

7. For silk flowers, Add a dab of hot glue to the bottom back of the sunflowers to permanently attach the sunflowers to the desired place on your flower girl basket.

8. Now you have a basic and easy to make flower girl basket using sunflowers and daisies that is a great idea for any summer time wedding!
