Elevate Your Rosettes with Our Stunning New Shimmer Foil Collection
If you've ever wanted your award rosettes to truly dazzle you, catching the light, drawing eyes across the room, and making every recipient feel like a champion, then our New Shimmer Rosette Side Steamers is exactly what you've been waiting for. At Hodges Badge, we're always looking for ways to push the boundaries of rosette design, and our shimmer collection is our most exciting ribbon innovation yet.
Forget everything you thought you knew about adding sparkles to ribbons. Shimmer foil is here to change the game.
What Is Shimmer Foil Ribbon?
Our New Shimmer Rosette Side Steamers feature a delicate, star-studded foil pattern embedded directly into the ribbon surface, giving it a luminous, eye-catching quality that sparkles beautifully under any lighting. Unlike traditional glitter ribbons, the shimmer effect is woven into the fabric of the ribbon itself, which means it looks incredible without the mess, the fallout, or the headache that comes with glitter.
The shimmer design is currently available in four stunning colors; each carefully matched to coordinate with our full range of solid satin premium ribbons:
Custom award ribbons and rosettes can include:
- Gold Shimmer: Available in Irish gold ribbon with gold foil, perfect for a warm, classic award look.
- Silver Shimmer: Available in gray ribbon with silver foil, offering a sleek, modern, and sophisticated finish.
- Bronze Shimmer: Available in bronze ribbon with bronze foil, delivering that rich, warm podium-finish feel.
- Prism Shimmer: Available in white ribbon with multi-color prism foil, creating a magical, rainbow-like shimmer that suits any occasion.

Shimmer vs. Glitter: Why Shimmer Wins Every Time
Glitter has long been a go-to for adding sparkle to awards and decorations, but anyone who has worked with it knows the downside. It gets everywhere. It transfers onto clothing, hands, and surfaces. It doesn't photograph well up close. And once it starts shedding, there's no stopping it.
Our Shimmer Foil Ribbon gives you all the glam of glitter without any of those headaches. Here's why it's a better choice for your award rosettes:
- No mess, no fallout: The shimmer effect is permanent and sealed into the ribbon. There's no loose glitter to worry about transferring onto hands or clothing.
- Clean, professional presentation: Shimmer looks polished and intentional, giving your rosettes a high-end, finished look that glitter simply can't match.
- Photogenic sparkle: The foil catches light beautifully in photos, making it ideal for events where awards will be photographed or livestreamed.
- Durable and long-lasting: Unlike glitter that fades and falls off over time, the shimmer effect holds up beautifully, so your awards look just as stunning months after the event.
- Child and animal safe: Because there's no loose glitter, shimmer ribbons are a safer choice for equestrian, dog show, 4-H, and youth event rosettes.
Mix and Match Across Our Full Solid Satin Premium Ribbon Range
One of the most exciting features of our New Shimmer Rosette Side Steamers collection is how beautifully it coordinates our entire lineup of solid satin premium ribbons. Each of the four shimmer colors was designed to blend seamlessly with a wide variety of ribbon colors, giving you virtually unlimited design possibilities.
Imagine a deep navy satin ribbon rosette accented with Silver Shimmer streamers, crisp, bold, and authoritative. Or a rich maroon rosette with Gold Shimmer side streamers for an elegant, regal award presentation. A pastel pink ribbon paired with Prism Shimmer creates a whimsical, celebratory look perfect for youth competitions and fairs.
Because the shimmer ribbons are designed to mix and match, you can use them to tie together a cohesive event color palette while still making each individual award feel unique and special.
Use Shimmer as Side Streamers on Any Rosette
The most versatile way to incorporate our new shimmer rosette side streamers is by adding them to any of our custom rosettes. Side streamers are the flowing ribbon tails that hang from the base of the rosette, and they're one of the most visible and eye-catching parts of the entire award.
All of our custom rosettes can be customized with Shimmer Foil Ribbon as side streamers, allowing you to add that extra layer of sparkle and dimension to first place, grand champion, reserve champion, and special recognition awards.
Whether your event is a horse show, dog show, fair, school competition, corporate recognition ceremony, or academic achievement, shimmer streamers immediately elevate the visual impact of the award and make recipients feel truly celebrated.
Take Rosettes to the Next Level
For those who truly want to make a statement, our Shimmer Foil Ribbon can also be incorporated directly into the rosette top on our Deluxe Style rosettes. This is where the design really shines, literally.
Deluxe rosettes can be crafted using shimmer ribbon alongside your chosen satin ribbons. The result is a rosette that has depth, texture, and a luminous quality that standard ribbon simply cannot achieve. As the award catches light from different angles, the foil shimmer dances and shifts, creating a dynamic, living sparkle effect.
This level of customization is what sets Hodges Badge rosettes apart. We don't just make awards; we handcraft keepsakes that people are proud to display for years to come.
