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.

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.

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.

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.
