Flag Sculptures
This is my most recent article for Project Wedding. I made simple flags on dowels then dipped them into an Elmers glue mixture and let them dry and then they stand out straight like little flag sculptures. These would be really cute lining a pathway or just sprinkled around the sidelines of your reception or party.
Special thanks to Alexis for assisting and Adele for modeling.

Those flags are so cute, especially with that very chic dress!
Love the flags and really LOVE the dress in the first photo. Is it a vintage dress?
Very simple, but unique. I have seen tons of bunting/flag banners (which I love), but this creates the same look – on the ground.
So cheery! In my dream world, these would line every sidewalk.
Great idea!
Love them! It's a fantastic idea!
So clever!
(And yes. Like everyone else, I adore that dress!)
I love the cheery yellow color! I've used this flag idea before for parties and they come out so lovely- liquid starch works as well if you don't have a huge bottle of Elmers:)
you are so clever. these would be presh in a little boy's room.
Wow! I love that you used so many different shades of yellow as well – simple and chic
Brilliant!
such a brilliant idea! love it.
such a clever idea! you're amazing, as usual. the photos are so cute!
yippee! glad that lil' white dress is getting some time in the spotlight!!
(also, now i want to make these for my wedding)
I know that the post is about the flags, but the dress is gorgeous.
So pretty!
Great idea! Small, medium or large, these are cute any every size.
where do you come up with these ideas? so cute!
Love her dress… any chance we can find out where she got it???
these are adorable and so easy (it seems) to make. they just might be making an appearance at a kids birthday party i'm planning! love them!
I love this take on the flag fad! Flags are so festive and pretty I will for sure make these!!
these are great! it reminds me of when we did batik with elmer's glue and it took f-o-r-e-v-e-r to wash the glue out. they're still a little stiff! :^)
Did you get this idea from forty sixth at grace blog? It looks all too familiar. In anycase, they look great.
Hi Anon: I love 46th and Grace but I've never seen Flag Sculptures on her site.
Won't you PLEASE tell us where she got that dress?
Please let us know where the dress came from.
Thank you.
Yes – please tell us where you got the dress. It’s beautiful!
