Do all gifts need ribbons and bows?

While there's no hard rule that requires it, tying ribbons and attaching bows to a wrapped gift is a beloved tradition that can make a gift all the more special. Ribbons can be tied in a number of creative ways to accent the gift wrap covering the present, and a colorful bow adds a flourishing touch. When you decide to use a gift bag to hold a present, a lively bow is the perfect finishing touch. And even if you choose not to wrap your gift, tying a festive ribbon or sticking a bow on the present is a thoughtful gesture that makes gifting feel more special. Browse the many wonderful shops on Etsy to find the perfect wrappings for dressing up your gift-wrapping .

Do ribbons and bows need to match the wrapping paper?

It's entirely up to you how you want your presents to look when you're done gift wrapping. There are many ways you can mix and match your gift wrappings to make your packages look dazzling. Ribbons a few tones brighter or darker than the prime color of the wrapping paper brilliantly complement the gift wrap. Consider adding a bow that matches the ribbon you choose. Mixing colors can make your wrapping job pop. For example, a yellow ribbon against a backdrop of blue or red gift wrap gives the bundle a bright, clean aesthetic. Consider silver or gold ribbons and bows for an elegant visual appeal.
