Here are photos that I hope show you how to make a lovely corn decoration or corn doll using 5 heads of wheat. Of course they are normally golden yellow but if you want to you can get green young stems as they are more flexible the first time you try this. So get out into the countryside, if you are in the UK, around July or August and take a few from the edge of a wheat field being careful not to damage the farmers crop. This was called gleaning in the old days!
Peel the leaves off at this point 
Here are the stems

the leaves
Tie an uneven number of stalks – e.g. 5 together using a stem from an additional wheat stalk.
You can use raffia if you prefer.
Tie it together at the end 
This is how to make a platt 
Take the end into the beginning and secure it.
