Simple Floral Bouquet DIY For New Baby

With a few simple supplies, you can turn grocery store flowers into a beautiful personalized gift. 

Supplies:

• Assortment of flowers from the grocery store (Trader Joe's has the best!)
• Twine
• Roll of Packing Paper (You can usually find this at the dollar store)
• Scissors
• White Chalk Marker (My favorite are these)
• Tissue Paper
• Tape

To make a personalized outer layer, cut a 24 inch x 24 inch square of packing paper. Using the chalk marker, write the baby's name at an angle covering the paper. 

Tie the bouquet together with twine. Cut the tissue paper into a large square and trim off the bottom into a half circle as shown in the photo above. Wrap tissue around bouquet. Secure with a piece of tape. Repeat this on the opposite side with another piece of tissue paper.

Repeat the same process with the customized packing paper for the exterior layer. Secure with a piece of tape. 

You can also customize the packing paper for thank-you's, birthdays, and graduations. The options are endless!
