When the wreath is woven on the size of just large enough to fit the head, a blade of grass or a flower next finally connects the first and last daisies to complete the floral ring.

Floral Wreath
It is an old Greek custom to hang a wreath of fresh flowers on your door to celebrate special occasions. The rings are made of grass, raffia, vines or any other supple material. The stems of the flowers are cut to three inches or so and wired onto the garland
1. Gather a bundle of long grass. If the grass is too dry to shape into a circle wet it down before shaping it and binding it with fishing line, twine or floral wire.
2. Bind small bunches of flowers together using floral wire. Leave some of the larger flowers separate.
3. Randomly secure the bunches of flowers and the single ones to the grass wreath.
Daisy chain
A daisy chain
A garland created from the daisy flower, generally as a children's game, is called a daisy chain. One method of creating a daisy chain is as follows: daisies are picked and a hole is made towards the base of the stem, generally by piercing with fingernails or tying a knot. The stem of the next flower can be threaded through until stopped by the head of the flower. By repeating this with many daisies, it is possible to build up long chains and to form them into simple bracelets and necklaces.[1]
There is another popular method which involves pressing the flower heads against each other, so that the final chain looks like a caterpillar.
The term "daisy chain", or "daisy chaining", can also refer to various technical and social "chains".
