Ribbon Textures.
Ribbon used for decorating fabrics is most likely made of fabric. Velvet, satin, rayon, and silk are the most common types used but cotton, polyester, and wool can also be used. Different techniques can be used on the surface to create a new appearance. There are six different broad categories of ribbon textures: grosgrain, satin, velvet, organdies, metallics and natural fibers.
Grosgrains are woven and show great detail in the weave. They are usually made of polyester, cotton or a fiber blend, and tend to be very durable. Satin is a popular choice because of the bold colors, shiny finishes and variety of surface patterns and edges. Velvet has a soft surface and can be printed, flocked or backed with satin. Organdies are made from very fine fibers and are very delicate. Because of this, they usually have metal on the edges to provide support. Metallics are made from lurex or other shiny synthetics that give them their shiny, sparkle finish. Natural fiber ribbons are made from natural fibers. They include linen, cotton tape, jute and paper ribbon. Check out our entire selection of Unique Christmas Ribbon.
Christmas Stocking.
Christmas stocking is an empty sock or sock-shaped bag that children in the United States and some other cultures hang on Christmas Eve so that Santa Claus can fill it with small toys, candy, fruit, coins, or other small gifts when he arrives. These small items are often referred to as stocking stuffers or stocking fillers. In some Christmas stories, the contents of the Christmas Stocking are the only toys the child receives at Christmas from Santa Claus. Other presents are wrapped up in wrapping paper. Tradition in western culture dictates that a child who behaves badly during the year will receive only a piece of coal. By tradition, the stocking is hung on the fireplace, but, since many modern homes do not have fireplaces, stockings may be hung in almost any location. The tradition started up in Germany. One traditional practice is to reserve the stocking for five gifts that stimulate each of the five senses, for example: Something to eat, like fruit or candy. A toy or other item that makes a noise (this can even include nuts to crack). An item that is visually pleasing in any way like jewelry, cuff-links or a coloring book.
