How to Make It

1. Cut 2-3 sheets of tissue paper into a large square. Wrap the bottom of the bouquet with a damp paper towel and wrap the damp stems with plastic wrap -- make sure they're completely covered, or the water will ruin the tissue paper! Fold your tissue paper into a triangle. Then place the wrapped bouquet in the center of the folded triangle.

2. Bring one edge of the paper up and around the bouquet, creasing the paper next to the stems. Then bring the other side up and around, folding the first side back over.
