How to Wrap Flowers in Paper

If you are always scrambling at the last-minute to find a housewarming gift, I have a super simple project for you.

Housewarming gifts are sometimes hard to come up.  Me, being who I am, I am always trying to come up with something unique as a housewarming gift. Even though unique is nice, you really can not go wrong with a fresh, fragrant, bouquet of flowers. Fresh flowers can bring life to a room.  What better way to warm up a room in a friend’s house than with fresh flowers.

So, instead of gifting your flowers in the plastic wrapper they come, why not wrap them in a custom flower wrap?!? I knew I would be able to come up with a CIY project.  The best part of this project is I used a Trader’s Joe’s Bag I already had on hand!  Can you sense my excitement?!?

Supplies:

  • Trader Joe’s Bag

  • Paint

  • Paint Brush

  • Scissors

  • Twine

  • Flowers

{Step 1}: Cut open your TJ bag.

{Step 2}: Cut the seam that is to the right of the bottom of your bag.

{Step 3}: Paint “Home” on your bag.  Let your paint dry.

{Step 4}: Wrap your twine around your flowers, securing them together.

{Step 5}: Lay your flowers at angle on your paper.  Fold up the corner of your paper over your flowers.

{Step 6}: Fold the left side of the paper over.

{Step 7}: Fold the right side of your paper over.

{Step 8}: Tie your twine around your paper.
