The brilliance of a diamond and the brilliance of your honoree come together.

Diamonds are known the world over as a thing of beauty and grace. Your honoree is similar to one of our diamond shaped awards in a number of ways, as they are both:

• Valuable. They are valuable because of the rarity of their character and the elegance they represent.
  
• Strong. A diamond is the hardest surface on earth, able to cut effortlessly through any material it is presented just as your honoree cuts through red tape and issue that come up in projects.
  
• Brilliant. Every facet of a diamond reflects the light around it as your honoree reflects their inner brilliance and intelligence in their efforts.

If you've got diamonds in your organization, let them shine. Consider a diamond-shaped award today.

Arches stand the test of time, and so does your recipient.

Arch Shaped Awards are so popular because of the symbolism that the arch encompasses. Bridges are often made of arches because they are both strong and quick to build. An arch will hold strong over years of use because gravity compresses the materials downward and adds to it's strength over time. Arches are symbols of power and strength, as can be seen in the St. Louis arch. If your recipient is steadfast, strong and capable, an arch award is a good choice for them.

Circular awards

Circular Awards are great to give to recipients both for their beauty and their symbolism. Everyone has heard the sayings "coming full circle" to describe a completed action. Everyone knows the idea of "circling the wagons" to protect something valuable or significant. The circle symbolizes completion, fulfillment, reinvention or success. Do these qualities describe your recipient? If so, you should consider a circular award.

Obelisk awards are towers of strength, just like your honoree

Obelisk Awards encompass the mighty obelisk, a shape as old as the Egyptian and Roman Empires. These towers with pyramids on top of symbols of power. When thinking of the power players in your organization, doesn't it make sense to honor them with an obelisk award?

We carry dozens of obelisks in many materials, including some unique shapes.

Pyramid Awards speak to the strength, determination, precision and dedication of your honoree.

Pyramid Awards are symbols of hard work, dedication and strength. When considering the amount of man power and design that was required to build the Great Pyramids of Egypt, you can fully understand the monumental undertaking that constructing a pyramid really was. It was with great skill, mathematical precision and hard work that the visions of the Pharoahs came to life one bring at a time.

The symbolism of a pyramid matches the symbolism of the hard workers and innovative thinkers in your organization. Both your recipient and the pyramids embody:

• Strength. The natural strength of a pyramid is seen throughout nature and in your honoree.
  
• Determination. The building of the great pyramids was a time consuming endeavor, taking thousands of people to complete. The determination of building a pyramid is matched by your honoree.
  
• Precision. The mathematical prowess of the pyramid designers is unmistakable. Honor the precise actions of your honoree.
  
• Dedication. Every brick in the construction of a pyramid is a brick towards it's completion. Look at every brick of accomplishment that your honoree has put into place and you'll see why the pyramid fits their accomplishment.

The stars of your organization shine as bright as the stars in the sky.

Our Star Awards are amongst our most popular, and for good reason. Stars have been a symbol of brilliance, guidance, prosperity, wisdom and longevity for many centuries. As everyone who sees a star understands it's power and grace, it's easy to see why giving a star award to the stars of your organization is an obvious choice.

The symbolism of a star matches closely the greatness of your recipient, who both are:

• Bright and shining examples of what is possible. A star shines brightly in the heavens as the stars of your organization shine brightly in your office.
• Fine examples of longevity. Stars are billions of years old and continue to shine. Those who have made successes in your organization for 5 years, 10 years, 20 years or a lifetime of service share these same characteristics.
• Inspirational. As hundreds of poets, scholars, astronomers, sailors, playwrights and nobility have gazed upon the stars for inspiration and guidance, so have the coworkers who rely on your shining stars to provide them assistance, help and guidance.
• Brilliant. A star's light may take years or even decades to reach earth, but the brilliance carries through. That same brilliance can be found in the stars of your company. They're always the first with bright ideas and they carry the torch for these ideas with clarity, brilliance and radiance.

Celebrate the stars in your organization with one of our brilliant star awards. They will be as impressed and grateful to receive it as you will be giving it.

A triangle award is a symbol of perfection.

A triangle, be it man made or in nature, is a symbol of perfection. If you consider all of the symbolism of a triangle, you could apply many of those facets to the perfectionists within your organization. A triangle award will reflect their commitments and integrity.

A triangle, much like your recipient, is...

• One of the strongest shapes in nature. The strength of a triangle can be seen in buildings and in all civilization.
  
• A shape that spreads load evenly and manages itself very well. Since all pressure is put on the angles of a triangle evenly, it balances loads just as your recipient balances task.
  
• Easily fit together with other triangles. Because of their precision and equality, a triangle fits with other triangles to improve on processes as a whole.
• Adjustable to fit any need. As triangles in nature become oblong, they still maintain their structure and integrity. As new tasks challenge one of your recipients, they make adjustments and stay strong.

Awards for Environmental Champions

Some of the best environmental achievements are started by an individual or a small team of people.

let's face it, there is a lot of waste everywhere you look and that means there is a lot of potential for people to make a big difference in finding ways to reduce that waste.

We at awardsIDEAS.com because of our relationship with AwarenessIDEAS.com are developing new ideas for awards that give special recognition to the Champions that are making a difference stopping environmental waste wherever they find it. So this blog is two-fold: be an environmental champion yourself and when you have a chance give another champion an appropriate award.
