From titles to information and sales, badge ribbons are more useful than you might think.

And, to get the ideas rolling, here are 18 ways to use these ribbons.

Identification, Networking and Promoting Your Brand

From titles to logos, badge ribbons are perfect for using at an office or during a conference. They help to identify staff and attendees in a manner that a name tag may not fully accomplish. Use stock titles to help identify each attendee, or create your own with custom titles. And add a logo to custom graphic badge ribbons to help promote your brand!

Promotions, Sales and Statistical Information

Custom graphic badge ribbons are the perfect tool for proudly displaying your company’s growth and sales increases. Include any other statistical information you want on these promotional tools. And, use them to promote your company events and sales.

Event Organization, Decorations, Buffet Labels and Seating Place Cards

No matter the event you are planning, badge ribbons are the perfect accessory. From simple decorations and place settings to helping to organize event staff, these identification tools are there to help. Use colorful badge ribbons to label the buffet, or use them to coordinate different aspects of the event.

Bookmarks, Gift Tags, Party Favors, Games and Icebreakers

Badge ribbons are perfect for labeling party favors and go great as gift tags. Or, try using them during games and party icebreakers. These ribbons are perfect for getting to know each other during your party. Use them for names or to identify individuals using different colors. Give everyone a reminder of your party with a unique bookmark or souvenir imprinted with party information on the ribbon.

Support Your Cause, Give Awards and Raffle Tickets

Show support for your cause or another charity with specific colors, like pink for a cancer event. Or, use these tools as placement awards for any games or contests going on during your event. Each winner will want to wear their award with pride while they enjoy the rest of your event.

Raffles can be one of the highlights at any big event. Add a fun twist by having people write their names on blank ribbons instead of using paper raffle tickets. Even use blank ribbons to label the raffle prizes.

But, no matter how you use badge ribbons, they are great for everything at any event, party or other function.

Getting Your Ribbon Collection Organized

Is your craft room a mess and your ribbon collection an absolute disaster?

From Tic Tac containers to an old shoe box, people have been trying for a long time to control their ribbon collection. Short of actually buying a ribbon rack from the ribbon store (which typically are not available for purchase), here are some quick do-it-yourself tutorials to get you started on that path to organization.

Drawers and Plastic Bins

Most of us have a few boxes laying around with our ribbon collection trying to escape. Whether those are old shoe boxes or packing boxes, they still need some tender loving care. First things first, get those ribbons all out of their boxes and sort them. Go with colors, sizes or how much is left, it doesn’t matter at this point. And then, instead of slipping them back into the dark cardboard graveyard, give them a lovely new home with clear plastic bins. But, don’t forget to get our your trusty label maker and give those bins a bright, colorful reminder of what’s in them.

Wire Baskets or Old CD Shelves

Whether you get new baskets from your favorite container store or you find something at a local yard sale, wire shelves and baskets are perfect for ribbon storage. And getting your ribbon collection organized is quick and painless with baskets. Just toss in all your ribbon rolls, and you’re good to go. Or use a DVD or CD wire rack to hold the slimmer rolls in place. Both options can either sit on a desk or attach to a wall.

Rods, Rings and Dowels

This old standby is a simple, yet effective way to organize any craft room. Use rods or rings and slip them through the middle of any ribbon roll and hang them on a wall or in a closet. Rings are perfect for displaying other ribbon types, such as badge ribbons or award ribbons.

Or, with a few basic supplies like foam craft board and small dowels, you can create a storage shelf. Using the same technique as the curtain rod, slide your ribbon collection onto these dowels and stick the box almost anywhere you have space.

Pringles Cans

Needing a quick, yet fun way of getting those ribbons under control? Well, next time you finish that can of chips, make a slit down one side and stuff in your ribbons. Although, you may want to wipe out the can first, as to not get chip crumbs on all the pretty ribbons. Is the chip can not big enough? Use an oatmeal can or something similar instead.

Decorative Molding

Using pre-finished moldings, make little shelves for all of your ribbon and other crafting needs. While this project may take a bit more time, the effort is sure to pay off. The molding makes the shelf look like it’s part of your crafting room. And, paint them to match or accent the walls!

But, no matter what you decide to do, these ideas will be perfect or your ribbon collection storage!
