Personalized Flags make the Perfect Christmas Gift

It is the time of year when everyone starts racking their brain trying to decide what to buy everyone on their Christmas list.  Gifts mean so much more when you receive something you know the person put some thought and effort into.  When you receive something personalized such as a personalized flag, you know the giver did just that. Personalized garden flags and house flags make the perfect Christmas gift.  For a flag lover its the perfect addition to their collection and also a keepsake to keep for years to come.  Almost any decorative flag can be personalized although there are some that work better than others.

 A lot of what makes a flag a good personalized flag is its design and theme and if there is even an area on the flag where a personalization will fit.  Some flags, as my daughter and I say, "Scream for a personalization".  Dog Breed Garden Flags are a good example of that and one of the most popular

types of decorative flags to get personalized.  They almost always have a nice blank area where the pet's name can be added.  A really special idea is to do a Custom Photo Pet Flag, these are truly unique.  For the pet lover on your list, you cannot go wrong with a personalized pet flag.

There are also flags for firefighters along with garden flags and house flags for all five active branches of the military that are great for personalizing.  To add someone's name to a military garden flag or firefighter flag and display that flag or give as a gift, shows that loved one the pride you feel. A personalized military makes a great gift any time of year.

Personalized Birthday Banner Garden Flags

I have always loved birthdays.  Even now when I dread my age increasing by "1" I still secretly look forward to my birthday.  It is the one holiday of the year that is especially for you.  So personalizing Birthday Garden Flags just makes sense.

To display the same birthday flag for everyone in your family doesn't represent what birthdays are all about, which is celebrating the life of one individual.  Personalized Birthday Flags do the job much better.  This Happy Birthday Wishes Garden Flag is a great example and is such a cheerful birthday flag appropriate for any age.  Just by adding a name, makes this flag so much more special. This is just one of many birthday flags that are available for personalizing.
 
 
A Custom Photo Birthday Garden Flag is also a great choice.  These are great fun for all ages.  When we created this Happy Birthday Custom Photo Flag we thought this would be popular for children, but we have actually gotten more orders using this flag for adult birthdays.  This decorative flag is great to display at birthday parties either outside or inside and makes a great keepsake to have for years to come.

If you have an idea of your own for a personalized birthday flag that you would like to have made for a loved one, let us know.  We do offer a "Design your Own" Garden Flag at our website where you can upload a design or photo and add your own text.  We are always happy to help with suggestions if you need them.
 
Thanks for reading and hope that you all , when it arrives, have a very Happy Birthday.

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.
