Decorative Flags for your Garden

Your garden is a great place to display your garden flags and it's time to get started.  For earlier blooms or veggies now is the time to start planting seeds.  It may be too early for some of us to plant outdoors yet so we can start them indoors to give them a head start.  Check on the seed packets first though, it will usually say if the seedlings can be transplanted or if you should wait and plant them directly in the ground. Things around the house can be repurposed into pots. You can check online how to make pots out of newspaper and I've also used egg cartons and plastic fruit containers. Just make sure there are holes in the bottom for drainage. 

 I am lucky that I had a small greenhouse built for me several years ago, but before that I started the seeds inside on top of my refrigerator and hung a plant light from the ceiling over them.  When the seeds aren't there, I replace them with a good size house plant so the light doesn't hang there neglected.

Once your plants are transplanted to the garden it will be time to put out your new Spring Garden Flag. It are some good choices.

This Inch by Inch Garden Flag is one of my favorite. The cute inch worm is much more welcome on the flag than in your garden.  This flag would look great in any size garden.

This Personalized Grandma Garden flag lists grandma's favorite people, her grandkids. This is perfect for a Mother's Day Gift.  This flag can also be made for grandpa making a great Father's Day Gift.

Decorative Yard Flags for Easter

Spring is here and Easter will be soon. I love decorating for Easter.  Coming out of the dreary winter the bright colors of Easter are so welcoming. Easter Garden Flags offer all those colors and more, coming in a wide variety of themes from traditional to whimsical.  FlagsandGifts.com invites you to see what we offer.

This View of Easter Applique Garden Flag is one of my favorites.  It is beautifully unique and eye catching.

Here is another Easter Yard Flag with the a more traditional religious theme., He is Risen Easter Garden Flag. It shows an Easter morning sunrise over three crosses.

  

One the more whimsical side we have decorative flags with Easter bunnies. Easter bunnies are portrayed in all sorts of ways and are so much fun on flags.  This holiday flag shows a sweet bunny popping out of an Easter egg.  This is a nice applique flag called Easter Egg Bunny Applique Garden Flag.  This flag would be a great addition to your Easter decor.

Another great flag if a bunny flag is what you want, is the Painter Bunny Easter Garden Flag. This Easter flag has been very popular over the years. It is such a lovely scene full of colorful flowers and an adorable rabbit worn out from decorating so many eggs.

So choose the flag that you like best. They are all wonderful, you just can't go wrong.

Garden Flags for your Pollinator Garden

Spring can't get here quick enough for me.  I'm looking forward to getting in my garden and putting out a brand new Spring Garden Flag from Custom Flags and Gifts.

I've been learning a lot about Pollinator Gardens and the importance to putting out plants that attract pollinators.  Bees are dangerously on the decline and butterflies are struggling as their migration habitats shrink.  It is important for all of us do do what we can to help. There are lots of resources online with lists of pollinator plants and also check out your local events for Native Plant Sales.

You may also want to check into making or purchasing a Bee House.  Definitely do research though if you are interested.  Studies are showing more and more that proper steps of maintaining the houses must be taken to keep the house a healthy habitat for the bees.

I love watching the bees and butterflies work in my garden along with the Bee and Butterfly Yard Flags I display.  They emphasize their beauty and importance when ever I look at them.

This Butterfly Dance Flag has been a long time favorite and comes both as a Garden Flag and larger House Flag.

This Beehive Home Garden Flag is also a great choice for your garden or yard.

Flower Landing Applique Garden Flag is a a fun and unique flag shower a butterfly hovering over a flower.

The Great Backyard Bird Count starts in just a couple days. Watching our backyard birds has become a beloved pastime and hobby for many of us. My love of birds is reflected in decorations both inside and outside my home. Many of my favorite garden flags have bird themes. They come in a wide variety from whimsical to beautiful original artwork. They look so pretty next to our pond where the birds love to bathe and drink. We keep running water in the pond in the winter. This is so important as water sources freeze and become more scarce.
