Ribbon - Everyday and Seasonal

A ribbon or riband is a thin band of material, typically cloth but also plastic or sometimes metal, used primarily as decorative binding and tying. Cloth ribbons are made of natural materials such as silk, cotton, and jute and of synthetic materials, such as polyester, nylon, and polypropylene. Ribbon is used for innumerable useful, ornamental, and symbolic purposes.

Cultures around the world use ribbon in their hair, around the body, and as ornamentation on non-human animals, buildings, and packaging.

Pieces of ribbon are used as symbols of support or awareness for various social causes and are called "awareness ribbon".
