All around the world, giving is a common way to show you care, express emotion and build connections with family and others around you. The biggest giving season is upon us and comes with a whole lot of wrapping to keep gifts secret until the time is right and make them look pretty! When a present is not only wrapped but topped off with a bow, something magical happens. That simple loop of ribbon adds a touch that goes way beyond just what’s inside that box or bag!
Did you know, the history of putting bows on things goes back hundreds of years? Awareness ribbons in various colors signify awareness and advocacy for many causes and became more popular in the 90s with red ribbons for AIDS and pink for breast cancer awareness. Way back when, people started tying ribbons around trees as a show of their support to those in the military or away at war. Bows have been used to seal letters, and mark treasured items. Even as far back as the Roman Empire, bows and ribbons were used to adorn soldiers, gifts and clothing.
Adding ribbons shows extra care, marks special moments, and makes gifts feel extra thoughtful. Over time, the bow has even become a symbol that all on its own symbolizes joy, celebration, and that warm little moment felt just before a surprise is opened.
For many, knots and bows represent togetherness and intention. A ribbon tied neatly on a gift presents itself as something that carries both a material item and an emotional meaning. You are important. You are valued. You are worth some extra love, care and time.
Today, that same idea lives on with every bow we tie. We’re bringing meaning to ourselves as we think about the person we’re preparing to gift and how special they are to us. When the time comes for them to receive the present, there’s that moment of recognition as they appreciate the thoughtful touches you’ve added. Your extra few minutes and a simple bow magically transform into a beautiful touch and a moment.
A moment worth remembering.
