Gift wrapping ideas for New Year

Add a ribbon, bow or pompom

This idea is about adding a little something to a basic gift wrap and making it look attractive. It is inspired by the idea of wearing a red pair of shoes to add a little vibrancy to your basic all-black outfit. You can wrap your gift with a plain paper.
