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.

Adding Colors of Autumn with Fall Garden Flags

Autumn is such a beautiful time of year.  The colors that represent this season are my personal favorite.  By displaying fall garden flags in your yard or garden you can add even more of these glorious colors to your yard.  These double applique autumn garden flags by FlagCenter show fall leaves in all their glory.  These decorative flags are just wonderful and so pleasing to the eye. They also can be viewed equally from either side.

 There are other applique flags for fall along with many lovely printed fall flags with scarecrows, pumpkins, mums and other fall elements. 















There are also some custom fall flags that you personalize with your name or monogram.  This Magic of Autumn Monogram Flag is one example.

Late Summer Garden Flags

As summer is winding down with shorter days and cooler nights the beach themed and flip flop garden flags in our front yards just don't seem as appropriate as they did a month or two ago.  It's still not time though, for fall garden flags with pumpkins or leaves of autumn colors.

There are lots of decorative flags that do suit this time of year.  Flags with late season flowers such as sunflowers and marigolds, neutral monogram flags and welcome flags. There are also a lot of bird flags that fit well with this time of year like this Heron Applique House Flag or the Birch Tree Songbirds Garden Flag.

Many flags with a country folk feel to them are also good for displaying in between seasons, like some of the pineapple flags and this Peace and Grace Applique Garden Flag that can also be made inot a personalized flag.  

So check your flag collection or browse the thousands of flags online for a new one to perk up your yard or garden.  We invite you to browse our selection at FlagsandGifts.com

So what is applique?

Having sewn all my life and being into crafting , just like anyone well versed in an activity, it is such a big part of your world, you forget not everyone knows or understands what certain things are or means.  In the garden flag world applique plays a big part.  Many flag people prefer the applique flags because of their bold simplicity and durability if its quality work. 

One definition of applique that I saw, described it as ornamental needlework in which pieces of fabric are sewn onto a large piece of fabric to form pictures or patterns.  I thought that described it pretty well.  Usually a column of embroidery stiches borders each of the pieces .  Embroidery is often used throughout the applique design to add accents and details such as the pupil of an eye or stem of a flower. 

High quality applique is essential to ensure the pieces are properly sewn so that they don't fray and cause holes.  We buy a lot of our applique flags from Flagcenter in Richmond, Va.  The quality is outstanding and their designs are classic.  We recently got a new order of autumn flags and also some holiday flags, they were all the applique decorative flags.  Here are a couple of the fall garden flags we got.
