Here I go again with American flags. 
During the summer I decorate all over the house with all kinds of American flags, most of them I made. 
If you are visiting from outside the United States of America, please consider using the colors of your flags. 
Today I'm using scrap fabric and a good imagination to create this fun and funky flag garland. 
Come take a peek! 

If you love American flag inspired projects like I do then follow along! 
I'm including 10 of my all time favorite flag projects in this post. 
When I say American flag inspired, I mean red, white and blue, stars & stripes and all of it! 
Take a look...

I love this summer and all the American flags that are displayed during the holidays. 
It is something about the graphics of the flag that I love. 
In the past 12 years on Homeroad I've done a ton of American flag projects and sometimes the simple ones are the best! 
Today's project is for the beginner and is super simple to do! 

This might just be my favorite banner of all times! 
I'm using repurposed materials, a little painting, a little stenciling, and a little iron-on technique. 
I created an American flag pennant banner that is great for summer decorating and the best part is that this one is reversible! 
See what I mean...

I saw a similar project on a website that I loved but wanted to make one for myself in my own style. 

Here is a cute project and it is just in time to make for the Fourth of July.
I'm repurposing one of the tiered shelves from the Target dollar spot. I think we all have one or at least I see a ton of them in the thrift stores. 
So if you have one and you're tired of the look like I was then you'll love this fun idea to jazz it up a bit.
Take a look...

Today's project was a complete experiment! I'm experimenting with things I had around the house and I was curious if this technique would work on burlap. 
If you know how to decoupage with napkins then you're ahead of the game! There are many different ways to do this technique, I'll show you the easiest! 
Grab some burlap, paper napkins and glue...
and take a look...

If you liked the easy rag flag I made using scrap fabric and a doily, then you're going to like this one too! 
Who doesn't like a cute project you can make from recycled clothing? 
I sure do! 
So gather your old red and white clothing along with a pair of blue jeans that are headed to donation and follow along! 

Here's a quick and easy project that costs only pennies and looks great. Customize this idea and decorate your home for the Fourth of July and the summer months! 

Today I'm re-creating a project I saw online. 
I liked the idea of the Christmas banner I saw but distressed and rusty were my goal for the remake. 
If you haven't seen how to recreate the look of rust, you're going to be amazed! 
I'm very happy with the way my Christmas banner came out and it was very easy to use with no special tools. 
Take a look...

I love making American flags and through the years on Homeroad I've made a ton of them! 
I found a great set of star stencils that takes the work out of making the stars on the flags I make. 
Today I'm repurposing something pretty weird to make an adorable wooden American flag.
Take a look...

Here is a project it's hard not to do if you have a red striped tea towel or fabric! 
Recently I made an American flag banner using strips of torn red, white and blue fabric. 
The leftover tea towel is now my newest project.
Recycling fabrics and clothing is one of my favorite things to do!
Check this out...

Here's a fun and easy banner made with old books.

It is that time of year when I decorate with red, white, and blue for the summer holidays. 
I've done several fun projects already and with the supplies for this one, I made two projects. 
This pretty garland was so easy to make I did it at work! 
I kid you not! Take a look...

Here is an easy and inexpensive project using old yellowed discarded books.

Garlands and banners are so much fun to make and really very easy too. 
Today I'm creating a tiny pennant banner to decorate a tiered tray or peg shelf for the Fourth of July.
I used scraps of fabric and a piece of string... that's it!  
Take a look....

On a recent trip to the craft store I came close to buying this pretty Fourth of July rag garland... but I didn't. 

I made this mini ladder several years ago and it's been on my mantel ever since. I add it to every seasonal display and it always looks amazing! It is easy and you're going to want to make one of your own.

This project is for the children in your life.  We created a backyard trail for kids with fun things to do and learn right in your own backyard. 

Pennant flags to decorate your home. 

These were made from vintage upholstery tape.

I cut flag shapes from the tape and put a drop of hot glue in between the layers to secure the flags to twine.

Cute little aged clothes pinsclip to the top for decoration.

I added items of interest, vintage clip art, and old photos to the clips.


This garland adds a vintage look to my fan cover photo display.
