MORE: The best hot sauce isn’t what you’d expect, according to this taste-test bracket I should clarify: Don’t eat the flowers. That could get weird. Instead, eat out of containers that are attached to your head and filled with said holiday chow. Here’s how to create a festive flower crown that serves as an appetizer and inevitable conversation starter. You’ll be the life of the party.

What you’ll need:

Coiled wire 20-gauge stem wire Fresh flowers (prices vary, but I found mine for about $4.99 each at Trader Joe’s; I chose red, white and green to represent the Mexican flag) 4  4-ounce plastic cups Floral tape Optional: Fake foam limes for extra flair
