    Easy Wood Block Flag Banner

    12:35 PM - By 

    This project was inspired by THIS ONE I made last year. I decid­ed to try my hand at cre­at­ing some­thing with a more prim­i­tive look. Prim­i­tive and clas­sic has always been my favorite theme for sum­mer hol­i­days.

Keep in mind you could use scrap wood or even pal­lent wood to cre­ate this look too. Or if that isn’t…
