Picking daisies
Find your daisies. A good daisy is short and has a thick stem so it is strong and fully open. You can also find ones with pink tips or ones that are just white. Pick a large handful, but remember that they won’t keep for more than a couple of hours before they shrivel up.

Make a small slit with your thumbnail
Make a small cut at the base of the stem with your thumb nail. Take care not to make the slit too big, it should be just a bit longer than the width of the daisy stem. Make sure the slit doesn’t go all the way to the bottom.

When your daisy chain is the right length, make a slit at the top of the last stem near the head, and thread the last daisy through the small slit in the first stem.
