Common Decoration Mistakes
- Too much decoration — Ribbon + belly band + tissue = too busy
- Wrong ribbon color — Ribbon doesn’t match brand
- No sample approval — Ribbon looks different in person
- Ignoring cost — Ribbon on budget products = overkill
- Wrong decoration for brand — Ribbon for a minimalist brand = mismatch
