I usually have some extra thin gauge tin or sheet metal left over from disassembling the CD and Floppy drives. Cut out two pointed ovals, basically leaf shapes. Crease them down the middle and draw lines with an exacto knife or screwdriver.

Cut about 3 inches of stiff wire. make a slight bend, and glue the leaves on.

When the glue is dry, take some of the thin gauge wire, and wrap the center. use the remaining ends to attach it to the stem of the flower. I usually let the rest hang down and wrap up the ends to form little tendrils.
