A Merry Modern Christmas Gift Wrap Round-Up

I love wrapping presents.  Almost certainly more than buying them (What?!  Driving around the DC area during the holidays is a bigger pain than you can know.)  Because I can be easily distracted by all kinds of lovely wrapping accouterment, I like to pick a theme to keep myself focused.  This year, I'm sticking with my Merry Modern Christmas theme of black, white, and gold.  If you like this too, here's a whole bevy of inspiration and supplies.
