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.

Or our Custom Monogram Flag, The Magic of Autumn.

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.

Fall time is Pumpkin Time

Nothing says fall quite like pumpkins, they are everywhere this time of year.  There are pumpkin pancakes, pumpkin spice lattes and pumpkin muffins just to name a few.  I'm not complaining, I love just about anything with pumpkin in it.

People make such creative fall decorations and Jack-O-Lanterns.  They're not just for carving anymore.  They paint them, use decals, wrap them in cloth, use rhinestones, googley eyes and the list goes on.  I've wasted many an hour browsing the internet looking at all the different ways people decorate with pumpkins.  Here is an article of 45 Pumpkin Decorating Projects from Midwest Living. 

 I also enjoy all the fall garden flags with pumpkins on them.  There are so many nice ones.  The Pumpin Welcome Applique Fall Garden Flag above is one of my favorite with the blackbird and large sunflower.  There is also the Autumn Wagon Applique Flag and Pumpkin Birdhouse Autumn Flag to name a few.  I haven't had a lot of time this fall to do much with pumpkins myself, even though I had grand plans.  For right now, I'll just settle with a nice decorative yard flag or two with the orange symbol of fall to add color to my outdoor autumn decor.
