Creating things on your own should not be a problem. That is especially true if you are adept at using your hands. Out of the many things that will become easy for you to make is the decorative holiday flags. It should not be a difficult task for you to make one, even a dozen, of the said artwork for the upcoming national event.

Even when they are clumsy, it is possible to make quality ones. It does not take a genius to make the said product, after all. As long as you are familiar with basic shapes and how to make the said item, then there is nothing impossible for you to do. You will also need some tools to make the work easier too.

You can surely take advantage of various materials for the making of the said product. It is your responsibility to figure out which materials are the most useful for you when you are making this product. Then, you have to prepare the materials beforehand. Here are some materials that you might find useful in this project.

If you are on a very tight budget, try using the bond paper or cardboard then. These options have plain surfaces that you can use to put the design for the flag that you are planning to create. It should be suitable for you to buy this material because they are quite cheap.

For this option, you have to create the design from art paper. The art paper is a type of paper where one side is colored and the other side is plain. You just need to use the colored side to make the design for the flag you need to make. You can cut out lines, strips, stars, and other designs out of the art paper to put into the bond paper or cardboard.

The more ideal option for the making of this flag would be the fabric though. It will allow you to make a flag that is quite similar to the real one. In fact, you can create a miniature flag of the real one out of the fabric. The fabric allows a smooth wave every time wind passes by, making it an amazing sight to see.

When you opt for this, then you have the option of using colored pen for marking the design. Of course, the colored pen should be specifically made to write on fabric. There should be a lot of such colored pens out there. The colored pen specifically designed for use on fabric is much smoother than any other option.

The colored pen is not the only option you have for creating the design on a fabric. You can also take advantage of dye in this option. All you have to do is to use some dyeing technique to get the color to the right parts. The dye is very color fast so the final product should not fade easily.

Get a pole. The pole should match the flag that you have created. If the flag is a bit small, then you have to find a pole that suits well with that. The proportion should be appropriate. When you have a pole, you can hoist your flag up.
