Mary Jane and Fiona both offered the inspiration for me to also start my flags for peace (see their posts below). From a broken umbrella I was able to salvage a beautiful circle of 'rainbow' fabric.

And with a bit of delicate and slightly tedious cutting I was able to tease a set of pennant flags and strings from the rainbow circle. Because it is a wet day on the mountain Fiona and I rigged the string of 'flags-to-be' across a window area which also doubles as our morning daily word and reflection corner.

I now intend to reinforce the flags-to-be and stamp them with a yet undetermined peace design.
Awesome! I love that your flags are recycled from an umbrella. How engenius of you.
ReplyDeletei look at this and think 'well, of course!' - it's brilliant, barry - absolutely, perfectly, you! and that sheer fabric looks so nice hanging in front of a window...
ReplyDeleteI can't help but agree - absolutely brillant! Can't wait to see how they continue.
