Choosing Patriotic Pins As Gifts

By Anita Ortega


Women usually like receiving jewelry. Brooches which are set in gold and include rubies and other gems that represent the American colors are often appreciated. While some people will wear hearts or birds, others prefer bows, stars or other patriotic pins that are covered with sparkling semi precious stones.

A brooch in this category may be rendered in a wide range of designs. Usually, it can identified as a national jewel by virtue of the colors or images that are used. Eagles, the Statue of Liberty, flags and maps of the United States are fairly common. Some of these paraphernalia include the colors red, white and blue while others may be done in gold, silver or another solid tone.

While these gifts may be presented to people whom you have known for years, they may also be chosen for individuals who have recently come into your life through your work or other social contacts. Similarly, a pin that is given to recognize a special day such as a birthday or graduation for a loved one is likely to have a higher value than one which is given out to guests at a party.

Many people like getting ornaments as gifts. Symbols of pride in your nation may always be worn on your clothing to demonstrate your admiration for the achievements of your country. Whether the person you plan to give the gift to is a woman or a man, you can easily find something that they will like. Individuals of all ages will like wearing these emblems when they have a special event to attend and they will remember you when they do.

What you select often depends on what the recipient will like and it may be hard to tell what they are fond of without inside information. Women and men who have served as military personnel may not feel like looking as though they are still in uniform when they are in civilian clothes. They may choose a flower over an eagle. Ask them in a roundabout way so that you can be more accurate in your selection.

Pins that are quite attractive may be made from glass, rhinestones or crystals. This means that when you want a nice looking ornament for less, you can get it. Some jewels that have historical significance have inspired the pieces that are seen nowadays and in this way, a connection to the past is established.

Your gift may allow for the creation of a complete set of treasured items in a collection. There are several people who make a hobby of gathering examples of pins from different periods in time. Flag shaped ornaments were quite popular during the World War and emblems from this period are owned by individuals who have relatives who served in that war.

There are many different ornaments in this category. Some are quite extravagant while others are understated and quietly communicate their message. However, all of them are effective at reflecting a sense of what it means to an individual to be American. They help to boost morale anywhere that they are worn.
