Using personalized ribbon drapes and ribbon table runners are a rage! This is kind of new, but ribbons in general aren't. There's of lately a collective awakening of creativity with ribbons that's taking the world by storm, and personalized ribbons are just adding to the body of work. Ribbons, those narrow loom strips of woven cloth, can be made of any fiber, such as satin, gauze, silk, and velvet weaves, and have been around since time immemorial - considering evidence of these woven bands dated to 6000 BC were excavated in Catal Huyuk in Turkey during the 60s. Their primary purpose may have been functionality, to tie things together or measure them, for example, but it was a matter of time before these bands that came to be called ribbons, made the transition into other purposes. They were used in performances, dances, and woven decoratively around ornaments, or to trim garments and commemorative tokens. Today ribbons can be found of any texture, size, and color and CeremonialSupplies.com is the best place on the internet to find the perfect personalized ribbon to enhance the decoration of everything from gifts and groundbreaking shovels, to the grand opening ceremonial ribbon, ceiling draping decoration, and table runners. Here's how to make the best use of personalized ribbons at your event:
The Many Uses Of Personalized Ribbons
A ribbon, when it's printed with text or a logo, is a personalized ribbon. This customization that makes a ribbon unique to a specific event or function adds distinction and class, and also provides other ways to use personalized ribbons in decorations. This is where the creativity of a party planner comes in, and where the assortment of Ceremonial Supplies.com is here to help! Our one stop shop provides the perfect ribbon sizes and colors for your event, and we love to share new ideas on how to incorporate them into your event décor. Used sometimes to disguise what an event planner will consider "imperfections" of the venue, such as wallpaper that doesn't match the event's color theme, wood beams and country-style setting for a high-end luxurious occasion, ribbons, and especially personalized ribbons are now the central point of event decoration.
Event planners run into the wall paper situation more often than you think. A ballroom venue may be perfect in every other way and the solution rests on the ability to disguise or draw attention away from any structure that detracts from the ambiance desired. Pipe and drape is helpful, it certainly will cover the walls, but draping the room from the ceiling center, out toward the walls, and allowing the material to hang will have a much "tighter" effect for the theme, and will create it's own containment space within a space, be it a ballroom, a tent, a restaurant, or a clubhouse. Add touches such as lighting - which is available in may forms, to create a particular feeling. LED has changed the world of lighting, and light garlands of different shapes and reflective materials used with the correct ribbon or drapery will create just the right atmosphere you seek.
Creating Color Themes With Ribbons
The combination of oversized silky ribbons in vibrant colors like red, blue, green, purple, or orange next to lighter materials like chiffon, tulle, and organza used for draping effect over wood and wood beams will add a feel of luxury and romance to the venue. Even more so when smaller widths of personalized ribbons in matching hues are used as part of a table runner design. Customizing one or two of the ribbons with names, a message, a date, or a logo now also becomes a keepsake item that has far many more uses for your guests, and serves the purpose of a memento of the occasion.
Creating a color theme for a smaller scale gathering perhaps at a clubhouse, a restaurant, or at home, is easily done with the use of ribbons in varying sizes for a draping effect that doesn't have to be as dramatic as ceiling and pipe draping a ballroom, but, it can be if you want it. Selecting ribbons of sizes that vary from 2" personalized ribbons, to 4" - 6" - 8" and up to 10" or 12" width ribbons of different hues of the theme color will bring the room together when draped from the ceiling - not necessarily the walls. Using the same personalized ribbons to create a table runner design will give the occasion the unique atmosphere desired, still incorporating keepsake mementos of the event in the form or an all-purpose personalized ribbon.
