May Day Crowns

Best for All Ages!
By Emma Maruska, Handwork Teacher

Let’s celebrate May Day this year by making flower crowns for the whole family!

Put on your crowns, dress up in white (if you feel like it), dance around the living room, and have a picnic! However you like to celebrate, I hope you’ll feel close to your Cedarwood community.

We have May Day crown instructions for makers of all ages! I’ve even had help from one of our many May Day Crown Fairies to coach us through re-using past years’ raffia crowns. Please feel free to choose a crown that feels fun for your family.
