The time has come forthe culmination of creating our headdress, which is the use of live flowers of the Bethlehem starFor this purpose, trim the stalks of mini poinsettias and burn their ends over a fire. Thanks to this, they will close and will not ooze white juice, and the life of the plants will be significantly extended. Place the twigs on the wreath and then stick them into a sponge.
