ABSTRACT:
A wrapping having a sheet of material and an elongated spring strip. The spring strip has an internal bias for maintaining an open position and a closed position. In the open position, the spring strip is straight from one end to the other end and has an arch from side edge to side edge. In the closed position, the spring strip is circular with one end overlapping the other end and has no arch from side edge to side edge. To wrap an item, such as a floral grouping, the item is placed against the sheet of material with the spring strip in the open, straight position. A portion of the arch of the spring strip is then flattened and the spring strip snaps from the open position into the closed position. In moving into the closed, circular position, the spring strip forms the sheet of material around the floral grouping.
