Friendship Lapel Pins Make the Perfect Hand Out Gift For International Traveling
Posted by Lapel Pins Plus | Thursday June 30th, 2011 | Topic: Lapel Pins
Travel is a great equalizer. It allows people from all walks of life to see the world by whatever mode of transportation he or she prefers. For example, decades of backpackers have covered miles of territory by foot. This has allowed them to enjoy a more personal travel experience. Rather than have a set agenda, they can take their time in the cities that interest them and move quickly through the ones that don't.
Show Off Your Country's Heritage with Friendship Lapel Pins
Friendship lapel pins are a great gift to hand out when you travel. Often featuring two countries' flags that cross at the bottom, they are symbolic because they show off your heritage. Traditionally speaking, the host country is on the left and the guest country is on the right. These items are sometimes called dual or crossed flags because of their appearance.
Lapel Pins Break Language Barriers
Cultural differences are put aside when these pins are presented. That's because they are a symbolic exchange of respect. It doesn't matter if the traveler is fluent in the country's native language. Friendship lapel pins speak for themselves. One look at them and a person sees what they are meant to represent.
If the host country is having an international meeting, handing these pins to guest countries is a kind and thoughtful gesture. This is one way to win people over. They'll remember you as a generous individual from the United States. They'll be more likely to have a broader picture of your country, its policies, and traditions.
Turning Lapel Pins Into Charms
We will be happy to create a charm for a necklace, bracelet or key ring by adding a loop at the top and removing the post on the back of the pin. This allows your friendship pins to be worn in different ways. Before you take off for your destination, make sure that you have plenty of friendship lapel pins on hand. You don't want to miss the opportunity to meet new people in the country you're visiting. Don’t forget, we can place them in an acrylic box that will be sure to impress at presentation time. Just mention that you're interested in presentation cases when you call us to discuss your order.
