You can use your gift wrap as a bow too! Just cut it taller then the gift, twist it and then form it into a tighter circular shape to look like a rose/flower.

You may add curled ribbons or tie the base of the flower with ribbon or even tulle for a pretty and unique look!
Supplies:
gift wrap or wall paper samples
tape
ribbon, tulle, or yarn - optional
Steps:
Wrap your gift but leave a longer piece of the wrapping paper at the top of the gift (as pictured).
Tape wrap closed at bottom and side, then gently twist the top of the wrapping paper clockwise.
Spread open the top paper and roll under the paper while forming a tighter coil. Tuck the end into the coil (I didn't use glue or tape, but you may want to..)

It should look like a pretty rose or other petal type flower!
You may tie a few ribbons or tulle at the base of the flower and spread it out over the gift, just to get fancy-smancy!
