Decorative seasonal flags can be found in most larger home centers or department stores and they can also be found online. They are a fun and affordable decoration for the exterior of the home, which has led to their growth in popularity. In addition, they come in various sizes and different shapes, and the unique themes are almost endless.

While the sizes and shapes may vary, most banners of this sort are relatively inexpensive. This is just one reason they have become so popular. Homeowners find they are a cost effective way to update their seasonal decor or to recognize a specific holiday or occasion.

This type of decoration is usually displayed outdoors around the front of the house. However, they could be used indoors if desired. While the larger variety may be attached to a pole that would be inserted in a mounted bracket, the smaller variety typically hangs from a metal stand that can pushed into the ground almost anywhere.

Some of the more expensive versions are made from fine silk which has been pieced together to create the desired motif. However, the most common seasonal varieties are made from less expensive polyester or other synthetic materials. The images are often screen printed in mass quantities, which helps keep production costs down, making them more affordable.

While they do come in many shapes and sizes, most belong to either the small or large category. The small variety may be more versatile as the holders can be placed near a mailbox, along a path or almost anywhere the homeowner chooses. The larger type is similar to a standard sized country flag, and may be flown from a pole in the ground or attached to the side of the house using a special bracket.

The popularity of these flags also has to do with the almost limitless variety of seasonal themes that are available. As would be expected, most manufacturers cover all of the major holidays, but there are also various themes that depict some of the familiar elements of each season. For example, popular images for summer include honey bees going in and out of a hive or brightly colored wild flowers. For the fall, images such as leaves, cornucopias and pumpkins are quite common.

This type of flag is also reasonably easy to find in many stores. Large home centers and many department stores offer them in the lawn and garden or seasonal section. However, some specialty stores may have designs that are more unique. To find a specific theme related to a hobby or a personal interest, it may be best to shop online.

Livening up an outdoor space is easy with fun and affordable decorative seasonal flags. Any homeowner should be able find at least a few that match their tastes. Shopping online may be the way to go if you are looking to find a particular size or shape or a theme that matches your own personal interests.
