Stars and Stripes Forever...

Yippee! Hit a few barn sales this weekend and found a vintage 48 star American flag to add to my (modest) collection. For an old flag the colors are still so vibrant! Man, they don't make 'em like that anymore.

My only dilemma was how to display it. Hmmm... A blanket crane would be perfect.
But I don't live in a perfect world which is why I don't have one. ((giggle))
I'm more of a "make do" kind of gal.

So as I looked at my walls I realized something was staring me right in the face.

Why not drape Old Glory over the antique pitch fork I have hanging on the wall??

Hurrah for the Red, White and Blue.

Happy Monday, all.

    Hee hee!! I already have, Judi! That's why I "layered" the flag over my antique mirror. :> )
