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.

Thanks for reading and have a wonderful Easter and please visit our website at FlagsandGifts.com

We look forward to hearing from you.

Decorative Flags for November

This time of year is such a busy time.  Halloween is now over and the abundance of fall festivals is decreasing as the holidays quickly approach.  It is now time to take down the Halloween Garden Flag and choose a more appropriate decorative yard flag for this time of year. 

It is a good idea to have a base Fall Garden Flag that can be displayed all the way from the first of October to December such as this Autumn Leaves Applique Garden Flag.  This is a very nice high quality double applique flag. Or our Custom Monogram Flag, The Magic of Autumn. 

If you are someone that likes to change out your yard flags frequently you can add to your collection holiday flags for both Halloween and Thanksgiving to switch out as these holidays come and go.  Thanksgiving Garden Flags usually don't stay up very long but they are still fun to have.  There is this nice garden flag by Carson called Gratitude Cornucopia  and our Custom Thanksgiving Flag called We are Grateful for Many Things, this custom flag is a great project to do with your kids asking them to list things they are grateful for to add to this personalized flag.

Once Thanksgiving is over your fall flag could possibly be put up again for a short time.  It depends on where you live and how much winter has progressed in your region.  But after a week at the most, it is probably time to put away your fall flags till next year and move on to winter and Christmas yard flags.

Frequently Asked Questions about Applique Flags

There are two main types of decorative flags; printed art flags and applique flags.

 So what is applique?  Applique is a form of needlework where pieces of fabric of different colors and designs are sewn together to create a picture or design.  Applique garden flags and house flags are made this exact way.  Because of the way these decorative flags are constructed they may have less detail than a printed flag, but they make up for it with other types of detail such as embroidery and other embellishments that often make them three dimensional.  For example, on this Just Married Wedding Garden Flag by Two Group,which is a double applique flag, they added some netting material for the  bride's veil

What is the difference between single applique and double applique?   Single applique is just one layer.  The pieces of fabric are sewn together with topstitch embroidery and the flag is hemmed so there are no raw edges, but it is a single layer. very often a single applique flag can be viewed correctly from one side only.  This Love Birds Garden Flag is single applique, but is a very lovely, well maded quality flag. A double applique decorative yard flag is basically two complete flags sewn together.

Why are double applique flags sometimes more expensive than other flags?   Since double applique flags are basically two complete flags sewn together, it is twice the material and twice the labor.  You do end up with a nice heavy durable flag, usually well worth the money.

What does it mean when it says double sided?  Double sided means the garden flag or house flag can be viewed equally from either side, including being able to read the text correctly from either side.  Double applique flags are almost always double sided.   With single applique it varies, but more and more, decorative flag companies are making an effort to make flags that are double sided.  Just check the description or ask the company if having the flag double sided is important to you. The Autumn Wagon Applique Garden Flag shown here is one of our heavy double sided, double applique flags by FlagCenter.  These are wonderful high quality flags.
