displaying top flight ribbon and certificate

[Don S.]

What do you do with your ribbon and certificate once you have achieved your top flight goal. Do you nail it to the garage wall--mail it to your ex--There must be many different ways to display them with your car. Lets hear some of the ways. I am looking for something innovative that I can use.

I put my ribbon under a glass that is like a picture frame only deeper, and hanged it next to my car on the wall in the garage. And the paper I put it in a frame also I keep it in the house.

Give it to the guy who buys your car and start on the next project!

You could string them on a wire and hang them around the inside of your enclosed trailer like the kids in 4H do at the fair. You could wall paper the shop bathroom with the certificates and use the ribbons for a boader at the top.
I think you could be the first to use either idea.

Ebay.

Re: displaying top flight ribbon and certificate

I bought an 18X20 frame from Hobby Lobby that opens like a cabinet door. The backing material allows you to use push pins or thumb tacks to display ribbons and certificates and anything else that fits. Set it on an easel next to the car or hang on the wall of your trophy room.

Have you seen how much they bring? To have a ribbon to parade around by one of BJ models could be false advertisement. To replace one earned by a car but damaged could find a buyer.

I think Dale Pearman had his bathroom wall papered with Top Flight certificates. IIRC, he had one under the toilet lid too.

Jim-- Does the glass in your frame not squash and distort the ribbon. It looks ok in the picture.

Re: displaying top flight ribbon and certificate

I had one of mine framed in a 1" deep box frame....

Re: displaying ribbon and certificate-Jim

Don, No because the frame has a 1/8" mat. The ribbon doesn't appeared flattened out at all. Jim

Ed,

Do you think YOUR top flight certificate will help MY car bring "Mo Money"?

This could be the beginning of a market for "repo" Top Flight Certificates!

Re: displaying top flight ribbon and certificate

Don't need to repo, I got a box of them. Ribbons and blank certificates.
Actually I had a box of ribbons and a stack of certificates for the now defunct Tennessee Valley Chapter. I thought about putting them on Ebay, but I donated them to another chapter in Canada instead. Another missed opportunity!
