    I am likely allergic to daisies, so I would not want to be near daisies or anyone wearing a daisy chain.
    I believe in the power of humanity.

    I used to make those. I made some long ones, too. Like, five feet long, once. Yes, I had a lot of time on my hands.

    I used to make these daisy bracelets and necklaces but different from a typical daisy chain. Like in Zeldy's picture, the daisies are a couple inches apart. I used to make mine so that the daises would all be touching each other and tightly woven in together. More like a wreath I guess. Used to LOVE doing that.

    ^ That's the kind of daisy chain I'd like to make
    The messenger is standing at the gate
    Ready to let go
    Ready for the crush
    Too late for whispers
    Too late for the blush
    The past is mercy
    When the future is aglow

    Wikipedia rules.

    Anyway I used to try to make them but I would always screw up making the hole in the stem. My thumbnail would just shred it all up. It would take ages to make a chain of three and then I'd just quit.

    INSTRUCTIONS FO' THE POOR, DEPRIVED PEOPLE WHO DON'T KNOW HOW TO MAKE THEM

    Pick daisies either one at a time or in a big bunch, all with long stems

    Using your thumbnail, carefully split a part of the stem. If you chop it to bits, that's what the long stems are for! Just try again using tiny incisions

    Gently pull the incision wider until you can make it into a neat little gap

    Thread your next daisy through the gap by the STEM and pull it through until it's stopped by the head

    Rinse 'n repeat!

    When you reach the end, I prefer to thread the first daisy thorugh the stem of the final daisy by the head, but some people like to tie them. I personally think it a bit clumsy and doesn't look so nice. If you've made a choker/bracelet/belt/ring/etc. where you're wrapping it round whatever multiple times, do so before tying it off.
    I LURVE DAISY CHAINS they're great

    I used to make them in elementary school everyday almost! I have a memory of me and some friends trying to make the longest chain possible!
