Cut the stem away to create a flush (flat) surface
Set the succulent aside for the wound to dry slightly
Seal the wound with flower glue
Add a bit of glue to the headband (or wherever you want to stick the succulent) and set aside for the glue to become tacky
Simply place succulent after succulent on the headband adding glue as you go along
Carefully add more succulents to cover the surface
