Patriotic Fabric Flag on reclaimed wood
The idea for this Patriotic Fabric Flag was inspired by a beautiful piece of reclaimed wood.
There’s just something about a piece of character wood that makes a project truly special & unique.
You can use other items like stretched canvas, wood or canvas panel, or any other blank plaque. Just use what you have on hand & get creative!
