TOP 5: Holiday Ribbon Ideas

A simple how to list for personalized ribbon ideas during the holidays.

ORNAMENTS CREATED FROM RIBBON ROLLS

All you need is a roll of ribbon and some imagination to work with these ribbon ideas! Wind your ribbon roll into small circles and secure with a pin. Or, fold them sections on top of each other to create ribbon candy. Make small Christmas trees or other shapes; securing each with a pin or a staple. Hang these from your Christmas tree with more ribbon or a paper clip.

ROSETTE RIBBON BOWS ON WREATHS

What a great ribbon idea! Use that award rosette ribbon this year on your holiday wreath. Simply secure it in place of the traditional bow to add your own personal flair to your door or mantel.

TO/FROM TAGS FROM BADGE RIBBONS

We’ve covered this one before, but it’s such a great idea that we’re mentioning it again! Use badge ribbons with the message “To” and “From” imprinted. Simply fill in the names with a permanent marker and attach them to the respective presents with tape.

HANGING DECORATIONS FROM WINDOWS

Make pretty and inviting decorations in your windows by hanging decorations and ornaments with ribbon rolls in your windows. Make sure to taper them to create a unique and fun look! Add tinsel or greenery to your display and finish off with a large hand-made bow. This is a great idea for those smaller windows that need that extra little touch.

TABLE SETTINGS USING RIBBON ROLLS

Hosting Christmas dinner and need to make the table look extra special? Personalized ribbon rolls are a great way to accomplish this task. Wrap the silverware or napkins at each setting in holiday ribbon and bring your unique style to the table. Or use the personalized ribbon to tie around the centerpieces. There are many different ideas here!

Whatever your use this year, make personalized ribbons a part of your life!

And, from all of us here at Coller Industries, we wish you a very merry Christmas!

Company Branding with Personalized Ribbons

What is company branding?

A company’s brand is what they are, what they want to be, and what they aim to become as a whole. It can be a promise of quality, trust or service. A brand is what makes a company or organization truly unique. Branding should make any company stand out from its competitors and lets the consumer know what to expect from that company.

Branding is one of the most important parts of any business, whether it be large or small. Building a strong brand helps a company or organization be financially strong. Product marketing is really where this process all begins.

In order to be successful in marketing a company’s brand, one must have a strong branding or marketing strategy. To determine the brand of a business, one must identify a target market and the product or service distribution means. By doing so, the organization can communicate the brand to this target market. And with the use of personalized ribbons, a company’s brand will truly stand out. Personalized ribbons are truly a great tool in company branding.

A few things to consider when working with an organization’s brand:

Brand Identity: This is the customer’s knowledge of and ability to recognize the brand.

Brand Meaning: This is the character of the brand beyond the image, and includes product or business features, reliability, value and experience.

Consumer Relationship: This is the attitude of the customer toward the brand.

Remember that a brand is the means to communicate with a chosen market. Each brand needs to be visually stimulating, thereby encouraging product loyalty. Carefully designed branding leads to a secure business or organization. An organization’s brand should posses the above characteristics.

Most of our personalized ribbons can be printed with a company logo and each ribbon has its own value. Ribbon rolls are great for corporate gifting and event decoration. Badge ribbons can be used not only on badge holders and name tags, but for awards, bookmarks and other recognition pieces. Rosette ribbons are commonly used for awards and can be used to highlight accomplishments in an office or business setting.

An organization’s brand serves as a promise to the consumer. Whether this promise is of services or product, remember that the brand will be used in a marketing strategy and requires copious research. Consumers must understand a brand to increase the effectiveness and value for the company.

Donation Spotlight: M.A.D. Riders Youth Trail Riding Association

Once again, we’d like to say thank you to all of our customers by highlighting our most recent donation activities. We were contacted by Michele Strotman of M.A.D. Riders Youth Trail Riding Association. Strotman is a Trail Guide at M.A.D. Riders YTRA. Here are some amazing details about the organization and how we were able to help!

M.A.D. Riders Youth Trail Riding Association is the first and only equine organization devoted entirely to youth trail riders. “Our organization keeps youth focused by offering two seasons per calendar year and also awarding them with mid season awards,” said Strotman.

The mission of M.A.D. Riders YTRA is to promote character development with direct familial involvement through trail riding, community service and non equine related activities. Strotman describes M.A.D. Riders YTRA as a fresh, inspiring and restorative association.

A National Association, M.A.D. Riders promotes character development through a variety of activities both on and off the trail with group and individual participation. Our program is designed to enable each M.A.D. Rider with honesty, loyalty, responsibility, respect and compassion by providing them with a set of rules and code of conduct to follow.

Each member will have the support of a Trail Guide Group in their community, with a Trail Guide to help mentor them, plan activities, host group trail rides, plan group community service projects, and so much more. M.A.D. Riders are required to participate in both Trail Guide Group activities and rides as well as perform a certain amount of community service.

Coller Industries Incorporated provided a generous donation of rosette award ribbons to M.A.D. Riders YTRA. The requested ribbons were the Single Streamer, Star Rosette Ribbons.

First, second and third place ribbons will be used at the event.

Strotman stated, “This donation allows us to recognize the hard work of (each of) our youth riders. Thank you so much for the generous ribbon donations. They are impressively beautiful. The kids are going to flip with excitement!”

Holiday Ribbon Uses: Halloween

Personalized ribbons are great for any day of the week. And for any occasion. So, why exclude the holidays? Halloween included! As Charlie Brown heard from The Great Pumpkin:

“When Witches go riding,
and Black Cats are seen,
the Pumpkin laughs and whispers,
‘tis near Halloween.”

Orange and black holiday ribbons are the typical colors for Halloween. These can be colors such as: Torrid Orange, Poppy, Tangerine OR Black, White OR Maize, Red, Scarlet. We have over 75 colors to choose from. And we also have many styles of ribbons to choose from. Ribbons rolls are great for holiday ribbon decorations and gifts. Badge ribbons are a great idea for parties for the office, school room or at home. Badge ribbons could be handed out for party games, given as a bookmark to students, or given as a prize for a costume contest. Rosette ribbons are also a great idea for contest prizes. Most rosette holiday ribbons can either be customized or ordered with stock titles or prize placements.

While there are no specific tutorials here, there are many wonderful ideas for holiday ribbon usage. The sky is the limit, so let your imagination soar!
