Consider wrapping flowers in different vases. Creative options include wire wrapped into coils, old lamps with wiring removed, collages created from paper towel tubes, old Pringle canisters or milk cartons.

Bind stems with ribbon, silk scarves, colored strings or wires, or scraps of unusual material including leather, satin, comics, newspapers, art paper, butcher wrap, bubble wrap and calendars.

Fit the wrap to the occasion: good-bye bouquets wrapped in colorful maps, anniversary flowers in wedding day newspapers or graduation roses in book covers with a graduation tassel.

Wrap Mother's Day flowers in a chef's apron or rock climber's rope. Fiancés get white tulips wrapped up with a wedding cake figure tied to the ribbon.
