A ribbon is a narrow strip of flexible material, typically made of fabric, satin, or similar materials. It serves various decorative and practical purposes. Commonly used in crafting, gift wrapping, and fashion, ribbons add elegance and adornment to items. They come in a wide array of colors, patterns, and sizes, making them versatile for personal expression. Ribbons are also used to create bows and ties for decorative or functional closures. In addition to their decorative role, ribbons can symbolize awareness for specific causes through colored ribbons or serve as medals and awards at events or ceremonies.
