Packing for flowers by own hands

Making bouquets is a very interesting creative activity. If you want to present flowers in addition to the main gift, think about the possibility to make the packing for them personally. From this article you will learn about some of the subtleties of this craft and how to make a nice and original package for flowers.

How beautifully to pack flowers?

In the art of floristry, various materials are used. Most often, the bouquets are wrapped with a film or special decorative paper for packing flowers. Synthetic materials for packaging - wrapping film, artificial net, organza - the most common. They are relatively inexpensive and allow you to make a beautiful package for any bouquet.

Decorate flowers with the help of such elements as rhinestones and beads, ribbons and cords. All sorts of bows - another fashionable and elegant version of the decor for packaging bouquets.

More creative packaging for flowers with their own hands is easy to make by placing them in a pretty basket or even a vase. Decorate your bouquet with natural materials, such as sisal, jute mesh, burlap, felt, rice paper or rattan fiber. This option is considered more presentable and looks best when packaging for exotic flowers, such as a strelitzia or Wanda orchid.

Important nuances in the packaging of flowers

These simple tips will help you master the art of creating floral packaging.

  1. It is very easy to pack flowers. To do this, fold the packing material in the form of a cone or a pointed envelope, place the flower arrangement inside and decorate the bouquet with selected decorative elements. For work you will need a stapler, an adhesive tape or a floral tape.
  2. When choosing the color of the package, it is better to stop at low-key, natural tones. This will help to focus on colors, not on packaging. Also a good option is the choice of raw materials in the tone of the buds themselves.
  3. Try not to overdo it with the decor: the fewer elements you use, the more exquisitely the whole composition will look.
  4. Always remember that packaging only emphasizes the elegance and beauty of the bouquet itself, it should not be the center of attention. To do this, do not make the packaging too bulky or bright.
