10. Seal with a Cellophane Dome and Statement Bow
The final barrier between a homemade craft and a boutique arrangement is the exterior wrap:
- Place the finished basket in the center of a large clear cellophane bag or roll.
- Pull the cellophane taut upward, bunch it roughly six inches above the highest item, and secure it tightly with a zip-tie or clear elastic.
- Cover the tie with an oversized bow made from wide wired ribbon, black velvet, or frayed burlap. Trim the gathered cellophane fan at the top into a neat, angled crown.
