How do I wrap flowers in kraft paper?

How do you wrap flowers with kraft paper quickly and efficiently? Follow these tips:

Prepare the necessary materials – you will need kraft paper, scissors, glue or sticky tape and possibly some ribbon for decoration.
Cut the paper – cut a sheet of paper of the right size to be enough to wrap the entire bouquet. Make sure the paper is large enough to cover all the stems and flowers.
Wrap the bouquet – lay the kraft paper out on a table, place the bouquet in the centre and start wrapping the paper around the flowers, starting at the bottom. Glue the edges of the paper together or secure with sticky tape to hold the paper in place.
Decorate the flowers – if you like, you can add ribbon or string to give the whole thing a more elegant look.

How do I wrap my bouquet in gift paper?

Wrapping a bouquet in decorative paper requires a little more precision, but the result is definitely worth the effort. How to do it step by step?

Prepare the materials – you will need decorative paper, scissors, glue, adhesive tape, and optional ribbons or bows.
Cut the decorative paper – choose paper that suits the occasion. Cut off enough of it to wrap the bouquet. Make sure the cut piece is big enough to cover all the flowers.
Arrange the bouquet – tidy it up by removing any excess leaves and stems that may get in the way. If the bouquet is too hefty, you can gently unfold the flowers to make them easier to wrap. Then place it in the centre of the decorative paper. Make sure it is centred so the paper can evenly surround all sides of it.
Wrap the flowers – starting from one side, gently begin to wrap the bouquet with the paper. Try to make sure that the paper sticks to the flowers, but is not too tight – otherwise you may damage the flower petals. If the paper is too stiff, you can gently bend it to better fit the shape of the bouquet. When its sections come together at the top of the bouquet, try to fold the edges of the paper evenly for an aesthetically pleasing and neat finish.
