It’s a hybrid activity/decoration/accessory/party favor! Set up a flower-crown station that guests will see as soon as they enter the space: florals in little vases or laid out on plates with twine, scissors, and other supplies off to the side in mason jars. Then, once everyone has settled in, make the crowns together and wear for the duration of the shower. Or, take the shortcut and make or buy them ahead of the party and display them over a rustic chair or side table near the entryway for guests to choose and wear as they walk in.
