I usually think of asters as a simple country flower but for this project, they became dramatic with almost an Indian flair. The confetti-like petals are so pretty too! To make the garland, we sewed the flowers together with a needle and fishline. It's a great technique for longer garlands and head wreaths too. You can see full directions over at Project Wedding.

Chelsea, your the bees knees.
Dang, I meant you’re.
I want one of these on the back of every chair I sit on! Seriously gorgeous work, Chelsea!
I wanted to do flower chair garlands for our wedding (but couldn’t as we had to move our chairs to a field and then back to a barn.) I also had no idea how to make one. Saving this DIY for a special party! Thanks, Chelsea!
