Comment BW and I’ll DM you a link to the bind wire I used.   • Cut a long piece of bind wire to your desire & make it a tad longer (see why below). Make a small loop on one end so you can hang it on something after you finish making the garland. • Harvest zinnias from your garden and cut the stems off right to the flower head  • with the flower head facing down, poke the bind wire through the center of the zinnia & keep stringing until done! I found after several zinnias, I needed to snip the bind wire to get a sharp piece again to pierce the zinnia (so be careful when doing this project! 😄) • Once you Pressed Zinnias, Dried Zinnias, Dried Flower Garland, Cut Garden, Zinnia Flowers, Flower Garlands, Be Careful, Cut Flowers, Flower Crafts
