Mother’s Day, graduations, teacher appreciation or just because. These are all good times to give a bouquet of flowers that say “You’re the Best!” Dress up some supermarket flowers with a printable wrap that says exactly that.
This printable has a few sweetly smiling watercolor flowers, along with a beautifully brushed message. All you have to do is print, cut, and wrap!

How-To
Print the Bouquet Wrap PDF onto card stock or paper. It will be less likely to get wrinkles if you use card stock.
Cut out the two pieces. The smaller back piece is larger than you’ll need it, making it adjustable for different bouquet sizes.
Place both pieces face down and tape the smaller piece to the back of the larger. Make sure they overlap a little.
Add a strip of tape to the back of the other end of the small wrap piece.
Wrap the whole thing around your flower bouquet and add smaller strips of tape on the outside. The fit should be snug enough that it doesn’t look oversized around the bouquet, but not so tight that it damages the flowers.
If you’re using decorative tape, choose a style that will coordinate with the colors and design, since it will show some.
If you start the assembly of this at home and bring it with you, you can add this wrap in the grocery store parking lot. Talk about a fast way to made your flowers a little more special!
The little details are soft and subtle, but oh so cute and fun!
To make your bouquet even more beautiful, grab a piece of pretty tissue paper. Remove the flowers from their plastic wrapping, but leave any rubber bands that hold them together. Dry the ends as best as you can.
Carefully separate the stems at the top, so the bouquet looks a little fuller. You can also shift some of the stems down so they aren’t all even at the top.
Place the bouquet on the tissue paper, with the flowers near one corner.
Gently wrap the tissue around the bouquet so the flowers are showing.
Slide the printed wrap around the tissue to hold it in place, and you have a floral gift that shows you care…without breaking the bank.
Happy crafting!
