STEP 3 Choose what words you would like to put on your presents and use a pencil to lightly draw that word onto a wooden flourish. Draw over that word with black fine liner pen to make it stand out.

STEP 4 Pull apart the faux floristry and leaves, and create little bouquets to put on top of your presents. Use a small amount of the hot glue to glue the stems together, or tie together with twine.
