Lace, Trim, Pearls and Fabric Flag


Three cheers for the red, white and blue! July 4th, Independence Day! 

It is right around the corner!

Lots of Booms and Sparkles!

The day we celebrate freedom!

Freedom isn't free ..... as they say.

A lot have sacrificed for us and I hope people remember that.

That is why I always hang a flag somewhere to remind me how important that word is and how blessed I am living in the USA.

I love all the beautiful countries out there and I love some of their flags too. But I am an American, and I celebrate that fact.

So today as I was stumbling in my craft room picking up scraps of things. I decided to create this Lace, Trim, Pearls and Fabric Flag.

The last time I made a flag was my when I made my paint stick flag. I wanted to do something different. So I started with all my trim scraps!

Vintage Cologne Bottle

Remember this Graphics Fairy print?
I used in on my clip board makeover






Well this is what I intended to do with it.....

I had an old bottle that I thought would work perfectly.


I mod podged the graphic to the front of the bottle and added crinkle binding and antique lace

The cap was kind of plain so I sprayed some glue adhesive to the top and dipped it in lavender



I found a silk flower and hot glued it to the top of the lavender 


The finished bottle



I can't wait to find some more old bottles. I just love the way it came out.
When you sniff the silk flower you smell wonderful lavender......mmmm
