Amaze your friends and make out present colors that you made yourself. Packaging will not require large cash costs, but it will be pleasant for a loved one to get something extraordinary.
So what we need:
• gift itself (box);
• material for flowers (double-sided color or wrapping paper);
• a regular sheet of A4 paper (practice);
• ruler, pencil (marker), scissors;
• double-sided tape or thermal gun.

If you have never made flowers before, I advise you to practice on plain paper so as not to spoil the material intended for the “finishing” version.

We take the flower in our right hand so that the middle finger rests against the compacted area from step 10, and the thumb lies in the center of the product from above. We put the middle finger of the left hand at the bottom of one of the petals. With the left hand thumb, draw from the carbon edge of the petal to the base, pushing the edges of the paper apart. After that, slightly bend the petal, holding its base with the middle and thumb. And so with all 4 petals.

So you learned how to make origami flower. Now it remains to cut out the required number of squares, fold them and glue them on the gift with tape or using a heat gun. You can decorate the flowers with sparkles or beads, and attach other decorative elements to the gift itself so that the flowers do not look lonely.
I took three large squares: 21x21, 19x19, 15x15. And 8 small ones, 9x9 in size.
