The Garden Flag Extravaganza


"Now, today's episode of 'Fun with Flags' is not fun. But it is important: Flags. You gotta know how to hold 'em, you gotta know how to fold 'em." 
-Sheldon "The Big Bang Theory"

That really has nothing to do with the garden flags that I make, but who doesn't love The Big Bang Theory? Sheldon is my fav. :)

I must say that my garden flags are the biggest hit of ALL of my crafting adventures! 

The credit is really due to my friend Marg. She loves when I call her that. Ok...well maybe she doesn't, but it's really fun anyway. So, one day after I finished her manicure, Margaret mentioned to me that she was going to buy this hand painted chevron burlap flag from Etsy for $20. Naturally I wanted to see what it was all about so I took a little peek and cringed! 

Ahh! Why do people sell things that they know are half done?? It made me mad that the flag wasn't centered and the letter in the middle looked like my 2 year old niece painted it. So of course I insisted that she let me try...and for cheaper.

So I give her credit for starting the garden flag extravaganza.

Thanks Marg ;)

Last spring is when it all came about.. and from April to December I made and sold over 100  garden flags! Pretty amazing right? I think so!! Such a blessing :)

So not only do I say thanks to the gal who started it all, but thank you to the wonderful people who purchased my little garden flag creations! Yall are wonderful.
