Creative Embroidery Ribbons

Flowers, houses and hats are perfect subjects for the artwork created with this creative ribbon embroidery!

When most people think of ribbon rolls, they consider wrapping presents or decorating for a party or some other function. Some people, however, think “what can I do with this that will make it quirky?” Here’s another idea to get your creative juices flowing!

Embroidery is the handicraft of decorating fabric or other materials with needle and thread or yarn.

The basic techniques or stitches on surviving examples of the earliest embroidery (chain stitch, buttonhole or blanket stitch, running stitch, satin stitch, cross stitch) remain the fundamental techniques of hand embroidery today.

The fabrics and yarns used in traditional embroidery vary from place to place. Wool, linen, and silk have been in use for thousands of years for both fabric and yarn. Ribbon embroidery uses narrow ribbon in silk or organza blend ribbon, most commonly to create floral motifs.

While the most common things embroidered are flowers, these twisted and folded ribbons are perfect to make any artwork piece come to life. And the best part is these ribbons look great as framed wall art or on throw pillows on your favorite chair.

With so many different stitches available, each look and flower will be as unique as the person making the art piece. And remember not to limit yourself to your design. Flowers are lovely, but so is a lady wearing a hat. Try making a house with a garden. And what about birds and other animals?

If you try your hand at this beautiful form of art, don’t limit yourself. Try different ribbon types and also different stitches. Keep your imagination flowing!

Bringing Cheer with Custom Ribbons

Cheer up! Nothing brightens up a day like a thoughtful gift.

Often life throws a curve in our way with someone we know and love getting sick. And more often, we want to let these people know that they are in our thoughts. The best way to do this is to brighten their day while they are laid up.

Nothing brightens anyone’s day quite like a gift. And the best way to make a gift feel special is to add a personalized greeting. So, why not do this with colorful and unique custom ribbons!

Custom ribbons allow friends and family to give personalized sympathy and get well messages along with any gift. These sympathy ribbons often will be saved after the person gets better to remember your thoughtfulness.

And, if anyone has to spend some time at a care facility or hospital, they are definitely in need of some cheering up. By using bold and colorful ribbons, any thoughtful gift will spread the cheer not only to the recipient but also to the staff at the hospital or care center.

The idea is to bring cheer to those around you.

So, whether it’s a homemade treat or a bouquet of flowers, personalized ribbons will help cheer up anyone and let them know that you care.

personalized ribbons and thoughtful gifts will help cheer up almost anyone Another great idea is to order customized ribbons that express either a get well message or a message of appreciation to share with multiple people at the same time. Why not visit your local hospital or care center and share a thoughtful gift with those that need some cheer in their lives.

Remember, it’s the simple things in life that matter the most. Sharing yourself and bringing those around you cheer is important.

As Paulo Coelho said, “It’s the simple things in life that are the most extraordinary; only wise men are able to understand them.”

In the end, it isn’t about the ribbon or the gift. It’s about expressing cheer and emotion with the trinket of thoughtfulness.

Rolls are the most commonly used ribbon type. Use them party favors, for gift cards and presents, in decorations and accents, on corsages, cake decoration, and bouquet wraps. Personalize any of these ribbon types with wedding dates, names or other relevant information.

Centerpieces are a must for all weddings. Any flower choice will look lovely in a simple wine glass wrapped with your personalized ribbon. Each ribbon may have an imprint of the bride and groom’s names and dates on a ribbon color to match your wedding theme. Or match two or more ribbon colors for a unique look.

Satin ribbon is a gorgeous accent to any wedding décor. Wrap vases and flowers with personalized ribbons for centerpieces on tables. Create custom pieces by having names and dates printed onto the smooth ribbon. From the simple to the complex, your centerpieces should reflect your wedding colors and theme.

Candle holders are also a great, and easy, idea for a lovely centerpiece. Pair colors to match them to your wedding theme and tie a simple bow around a glass votive candle holder. Using a lighter color satin ribbon under a sheer organza ribbon is perfect for any text showing through. Give these cute candles as favors after the wedding.

While rolls are the most common, use all custom ribbons at all weddings!

Make a unique save the date wedding invitation with custom imprinted badge ribbons. Choose a color to match your wedding theme. Imprint names, dates, places and times so that your guests are ready when you are! Remember to keep one for yourself and have it framed as a keepsake.
