Old New York's "Golden Age," has been immortalized in books and films and the city's "Gatsby" art deco style architecture, inspired by the discovery of Egyptian tombs and artifacts during the 1920's, is prevalent in the skyscrapers that create its famous skyline.

Glitzy Gold And Black Ribbons Always In Style In New York

Whether you're strolling Park Avenue, Madison, Central Park, Wall Street, or simply enjoying the sights aboard any of the gazillion city tour buses, the grandeur and overall imperialistic style of architecture of this grand city, aptly nicknamed "The Empire State" will surround you from every side. Buildings with straight, rigid angles and lines, filled with architectural symbolism, such as the Rockefeller Center plaza and its massive structures, adorned by the golden statue of Prometheus and a bronzed Atlas. Needless to say gold and black will top any other sparkly combination for a New Year ceremony decoration. We say ceremony because even with its modern touches, the end of a year and the beginning of a new one is a milestone that represents the cyclic nature of our universe. Since time immemorial there have been rituals and ceremonies related to the winter season and the start of a new year. The mistletoe for example, revered by ancient Nordic cultures, is said to have been used by Druids to make an elixir to cure infertility, and thus its association with romance. Wreaths of mistletoe evergreen foliage with its beautiful red berries would certainly add a colorful touch of decoration during the barren months of winter! It's no wonder that the holidays in New York City are magical! Whether decorating a ballroom or a special area in your home, there's no better way to frame a room than with decorative ribbons hung from the center out toward the corners. Depending on the size of the room you can use ribbons ranging from 4" - 6" in width to extra wide ribbons of 8" or 10" and even 12" wide. Flowing from the center of the room out toward the walls, the shimmering gold ribbon and black ribbon create the foundation of the overall decor. Table cloth accents can duplicate the gold or the black of the ribbons, but even a white table cloth with gold ribbon, silver ribbon, or black ribbon trimmed china will sparkle! Touches such as velvety red poinsettias, and red velvet ribbon bows to embellish the chair covers and other table details will add sophistication to the decoration.

Creating An Impressive Ceremonial Entrance With A Red Event Carpet!

Luxurious ballrooms everywhere will be dressed to the nines for New Year, creating an impressive ceremonial entrance with a red event carpet, classic brass stanchions glistening as they frame the walkway, and of course, all the attendees ready to have their photo taken as a Holiday memento! Create the perfect photo setting with a step and repeat backdrop banner as the guests step up to have their picture taken while walking the red carpet entrance! If the celebration will take place in your home, you will definitely want a smaller version of the red carpet entrance but definitely bring the ritzy into your affair! If there is a front entrance to the home, or to the ballroom, this is where you want to set up the red aisle carpet. Stanchions are used to guide the flow of people and, depending on where you've set up the refreshments stations, you my need to slow down the pace to the rum runners and position the photo station and the classic stanchions midway. This avoids any bottlenecking and creates a good flow of guests.

CeremonialSupplies.com celebrates the American Flag Lapel Pin - it's not just for Presidents anymore! Lapel Pins are signs or symbols that indicate identity. With its origins buried deep in ancient history, the lapel pin is today fully integrated as an embellishment not just to lapels, but many other clothing items. Worn on hats, backpacks, ties, scarves and many other items, the American flag lapel pin is not just for lapels anymore either! It is a popular and common sight in the USA, worn by people who love the country. It's difficult to pinpoint the exact origin of the flag pin from obscure antiquity, however, we do know that the lapel pin's ancient history is known to have first surfaced from the totem symbol of primitive clan tribes. Early Egyptian civilizations used the vulture and the cobra as totems, and although the Egyptians didn't make lapel pins, they did introduce the process that gives the lapel pin its originality: inlay and enameling. During the Roman Empire lapel pins were used by their large scale armies in order to identify and recognize the enemy and allies when in battle. Each legion had its own explicitly designed badge. This practice was followed into the Middle Ages by knights and aristocracy who designed ornate and symbolic badges for their own identity, and adorned their shields and homes with these personalized symbols.

The Birth Of The American Flag Lapel Pin

The flag lapel pin has had several popularity peaks during different time periods and seems to have made its appearance after jewelry lapel pins were already in use. But, if we're going to talk about the birth of the American flag pin, we'll have to know the basics about the flag that's emblazoned upon it.

The American flag is loved by citizens of the US and of other countries in the world as a symbol of what the USA stands for: liberty, freedom, equality, individual rights, etc. A leisurely drive through any American neighborhood will reveal many houses, condos, and apartments flying the American flag - a tradition born with the founding of the country. After the war for Independence from the British, the colonies used a variety of flags, it wasn't until the Civil War that the stars and stripes design we know today first came to be used widely. It's no secret that the Southern Confederates won most of the early battles of the Civil War. To raise morale, the Northern Union began flying the flag as a sign of unity. Interestingly, the lapel pin also surfaced during the Civil War and was used in the same way it was during the Roman Empire, as a measure for identifying different military units. The unintended result of this indicator was that it bred solidarity among the members of each unit by giving them a distinct symbol that represented only them.

The American flag lapel pin first reached popularity in the US during the cultural revolution of the 1960's and 1970's when anti-Vietnam war protesters attempted to diminish the meaning of the flag by burning it, or wearing it as patches on the backside of their jeans. In response, American citizens began wearing American flag lapel pins. It turned out to be an enormous multitude who became known historically as "the silent majority." And then the 37th president, Richard Nixon, and his administration staff began wearing the American flag lapel pin! After this, American flag lapel pins exploded into the fashion world!

Ceremonialsupplies.com is proud to offer our wide selection of patriotic lapel pins and awareness color pins to show your pride! Although the history of the lapel pin is quite tricky, and not very well documented, we do know that the lapel pin dates back to the 13th century when it was used by the armies of the Roman Empire. The size of the Roman army was of such a large scale, that lapel pins were necessary to distinguish the enemies and allies. Since those early ancient days of the Roman Empire, the lapel pin has been used continuously for various other reasons outside of the military, and as we can see today, the lapel pin can be worn to support a cause, as with the many different color looped lapel pins available at ceremonialsupplies.com, each representing significant movements symbolized by colors.

The history of lapel pins goes back to Roman times when soldiers of the different battle groups needed to be identified, however in more modern times it was former president Richard Nixon who proudly wore an American Flag pin, and in the 1970's wearing an American flag lapel pin became a huge anti-war statement.

You bet! While this may not sound like the typical gift to find under the tree on Christmas morning, we at CeremonialSupplies.com have this month had the pleasure of fulfilling 2 very special orders for groundbreaking shovels, one going to Madison, and another one going to Atlanta, that we thought we'd share with our clients and followers because we found them to be a thoughtful way to communicate a grand event like a groundbreaking ceremony. Groundbreaking shovels in Georgia for the Holidays is just how these entrepreneurs decided to inform others about a construction planned for the New Year. Here's their story:

After owning and growing their insurance company for 17 years out of the same location in Madison, Georgia the husband-wife duo team of insurance entrepreneurs Luke and Beatriz knew it was time to build their own office space. The search for a convenient location was intense and the outcome not at all what they expected. Speaking with business associates, Luke decided the benefits of constructing their own building couldn't be surpassed! This way the company would have the space and all the extra amenities created when people build for themselves, and there would be plenty of space to sublease and provide an additional stream of revenue. Luke knew his wife would fully support the idea and he wanted this to be a Christmas Day surprise. Immediately Luke went to work on finding a jeweler that would make a gold, miniature groundbreaking shovel bracelet charm, and an online retailer a for full size, commemorative, ceremonial groundbreaking shovel. With a simple online search, voila! CeremonialSupplies.com and our varied selection of groundbreaking shovels for first sod-cutting ceremonies came up and Luke first sent us an email and we quickly matched the special presentation idea he had in mind for his wife with our Golden VIP mirror shovel, (matching the mini groundbreaking golden shovel charm), customized on the blade with a special message inscription. There were photos of 3 different land locations that Luke was considering, and together with the shovel and a gold color hard hat, the photos were featured in one of our beautifully designed display cases that held the sod-cutting shovel, with room to feature the photographs and even a customized hard hat to match the groundbreaking shovel! The stunning final product was wrapped in holiday color plaid paper and placed under the tree ready for Beatriz to unwrap on Christmas morning and decipher the wonderful surprise!

Atlanta, Georgia is a city filled with movers and shakers - people who are always on the go, especially with the construction boom being experienced by Atlanta and its suburbs! There seem to be more new businesses popping up all over the beautiful southern city and the holidays just add to the excitement and cheer of a new year that will bring new beginnings. Tiphareth Press will be breaking first ground in rural Atlanta and the official invitations will be going out over the holidays in scroll style invitations pinned with a mini sized golden groundbreaking shovel lapel pin. The invitation informs the bearer to wear the lapel pin at the ceremony for a special recognition and prize. The holidays are perfect to send out invitations and make official announcements of planned events such as a first sod-cutting ceremony, but regardless what time of the year you plan the big event, count on CeremonialSupplies.com for the best online selection of products and tools to take your groundbreaking event to the next level!

Holidays Are Perfect For A Groundbreaking Teaser!

You've been planning for the right time and the wheels have been turning like crazy this year, and now it's December! What can you do to continue to maintain excitement for your groundbreaking project, and tie in with the holidays? Here's how some Florida businesses have used the holidays to keep spreading the word:

Miami accounting firm Shayra Barros Accounting knew they'd be fully operational in their new location by the next tax season, so when the holidays came around, one way the firm maintained everyone's interest in the upcoming groundbreaking of the company was by sending miniature groundbreaking shovel pins, placed inside a small gift box that held a plated inscription from the accounting firm, and wrapped in Shayra Barros Accounting logo with holiday silver and blue decoration. The miniature groundbreaking shovels were a holiday hit with clients, and when the time of the groundbreaking event came around, the miniature groundbreaking shovel pin was worn by many guests at the actual groundbreaking ceremony, and those attendees who wore the golden groundbreaking shovel pin, received a special gift.

South Florida's thriving communities all boast their own chambers of commerce. These consortiums of strong, Miami based businesses and entrepreneurs are continuously holding groundbreaking events, grand openings, and other such commemorative ceremonies within their respective associations. One particular savvy Miami chamber decided to purchase a Golden VIP Mirror groundbreaking shovel, complete with its own sod-cutting shovel stand, and dressed with matching gold color hard hat and a giant golden bow and placed next to the Christmas tree, ready to be gifted to the first business to hold a groundbreaking ceremony during the upcoming New Year. This is a great way to maintain business related momentum and offer incentives to growing firms.
