How many ways are there to tie a necktie?
405058
Supposedly there are "85 ways to tie a tie".  I have seen approximately 16 different ways.  The rest of the ways I've rear appear to be simple rehashes of these 16.  The one that is most often recognized as being easy and relatively neat, clean, and sharp is the "four in hand".  My personal top three are:\n#1:)"four in hand"\n#2:)"Half Windsor"\n#3:)"The Oriental"

It was first invented in France and in no way was it a fashion statement. In fact the tie was a piece of cloth, like a towel, which was used to wipe the mouth at the table. Over the years it became what you call today a tie and it is a fashionable item of clothing. You can buy cheap ones for a few dollars or designer ones at hundreds of dollars.

Assuming you are using helium balloons - Staggering the balloons is the best way, pulling and lengthening balloon strings as you have them in a bunch once you have it how you like it tie a knot near the bottom and have some sort of weight to tie the rest of the string too.  Keep in mind the ribbon length  ie if you them on the floor or table. Dollar stores have lots of neat ideas for weights and if you're creative you can find picture holders or mugs that are heavy enough and can be used again afterwards. Bunches of 7-8 balloons look nice, but it is easier to do groups of 5. Depending on how many colours you are using or have in your wedding theme. Also it is best to bunch the balloons at the site - travelling with them prebunched in a vehicle makes for a big tangled mess!

well let's see IF you MUST have a misc decor and you MUST have a ribbon then:\n\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 1\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 2\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 3\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 4\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 5\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 6\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 7\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 8\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 9\nchoose base 1, type of flower 1, ribbon color 1, misc dec 10\n\n10 combinations there, for each ribbon color = 50 combinations\n\nfor each type of flower = 150 combinations\n\nbut really you can combine types of flowers (1, 2, 3, 1+2, 1+3, 2+3) so for each type of flower is really 250 combinations.\n\nThen you have 2 bases so 500 combinations.

I'm not sure about the other ways, but i ended up tieing then so the laces ended upon the inside, so the bowtie thingy wasn't on the outside.. i think it looks weird that way... and I laced them so they're lines not crosses...

Believe it or not CROATIA is the mother country of the modern necktie but archaeological evidence of the use of neckties goes back to the Chinese and the Romans almost two millenniums back.\nfor more info check otu this site... :o)\nhttp://www.twilightbridge.com/hobbies/festivals/father/necktie.htm

- How many links should be strung together to form a chain?\n\nNumber of links = 54/0.5 = 108\nsd = 108 * 0.01 = 1.08\n\nSo mean length (μ) of 108 links = 54" with a sd (σ) of 1.08"\n\n- What proportion of the chains would meet BD's standards?\n\nz = (x - μ)/σ + 0.5\n= (54.25 - 54)/1.08 + 0.5\n= ~0.7315\n\nFrom a table of z-scores establish the proportion that would lie above the mean and double it for those that lie below the mean.\n\nP(-∞ to 0.7315) ≈ 0.617 (Ref Table 1)\nTherefore P (-0.7315 to 0.7315)\n≈ (0.617 - 0.5)*2\n= 0.117 *2\n= 0. 234\nie 23.4% of the chains will meet the standards and 76.6% of chains fail\n\n- Supposed BJ Company wished to reduce the proportion of chains that failed to meet Bridgestone’s standards to one third the current value to what value would they have to change the standard deviation of the length of the individual chain links?\n\nif only 1/3 fail (1/6 too long and 1/6 too short) then 2/3 pass and so want to establish z for p ≈ 0.5 + 0.333 = 0.833\n\nFrom table (See Ref 1)\nz ≈ 0.7975\n\nSo 0.7975 = (54.25 - 54)/σ + 0.5\n0.25/σ = 0.2975\nσ = 0.25/0.2975\n= 0.84 inches for the 108 links\n= 0.0039 inches per link

There are actual tie boxes that you can purchase to put the tie in or if you can't find one try looking for a thing narrow rectangular box that would fit the tie.  Fold the tie in half (I know some people will also fold it in thirds) so tha thte tie looks like it is being worn, put some tissue paper on top to hold it in place, put the lid on and then wrap it up.  Easy as that.

I am not sure what you are asking.\n\nChristianity is much older than the modern necktie.

in years gone by before buttons were invented,people used laces to tie their clothes together,ie,two laces attatched to a garment , pull together and tie in a bow.eventually the eyelet was invented and the lace was threaded through the eyelet etc. etc.the eyelet eventually became the button hole when buttons were invented.button holes first,buttons second.
