Flower Tube Wrapper

Fill cylinder with gift.

To make flower, cut a 9-by- 30-inch piece of tissue paper. Fold, accordion-style, in 5-inch-wide layers. Cut petals in the smaller end; unfold and lay on a flat surface.

Place cylinder on paper with bottom about 1 inch from the uncut end, and roll; tape sides and bottom with double-sided tape. Tie ribbon above the top of the cylinder.

Gently peel petals down to open flower. If you use a different height cylinder, adjust the height of paper; for a multicolored blossom, wrap a second layer of paper around cylinder after first is secure; secure with ribbon.
