Honor Cords – Pink

Pink Honor Cords (sometimes spelled as Pink Honors Chords) come in sets of two knotted cords, shipped together either tied or separately. The fabric used is rayon, not silk. Each half-cord is around thirty inches long, measured from the knot to the end of the tassel (about sixty inches long when spread out rather than folded at the knot). Each tassel is about four inches long. Honor cords are made from rayon (we do not offer silk). You can mix and match different color cords together.

People sometimes call these awards honors cords, honor chords, or honors chords.

Typical Uses
