Furoshiki is a Japanese tradition or style of wrapping. It is a square-shaped wrapping cloth that is eco-friendly. The main rule is that it can be folded and reused. It can also be made of so many different types of fabric depending on your preference. The most common fabrics used are silk, nylon, canvas, cotton, and rayon.

 

Choose a cloth with a diagonal length about three times the length of the gift so that you have enough cloth to cover the whole gift without too much extra flop on the sides. You can use an elastic band or a ribbon to hold together a folded pattern at the top. You can also tuck a real flower into the knot at the top.

 

That’s it – simple and unique!

 

 

2. Ribbon With Bow
