MINI WAVING FLAGS/CENTREPIECES

http://offbeatbride.com/2011/04/iron-on-mini-flags

So, for this project you will need the following:

• Mini flags
• A computer
• Some sort of design program (I used Adobe's Photoshop and InDesign)
• Scissors
• Liquid Stitch (£13.00 ebay) or some similar adhesive
• Fabric transfer paper (20 sheets £10.00 ebay)
• An inkjet printer
• Pillowcases or t-shirts you don't care about
• An iron
• A flat work surface

Offbeat Megan snagged this awesome idea straight outta the OBT and they both knew it would be a fab DIY post. It's so super-duper unique and, well... celebratory!

Michele (congrats on the recent wedding!) put this simple how-to together to share with all you OBB lovelies. You can customize them any way you want... so get printin'! (and show us pics of your own special celebratory flags!)

"Yay!" Celebratory Flags
By Michele

I made these “Yay” flags for our wedding, intending for people to wave them for us as we walked away after the ceremony. They ended up being such an integral part of the evening, with everyone waving and shouting “YAY” every time we walked by! And since I added our names and the date to the back of them, they also served as the only favor we had for our guests. It is a quick and easy project- I hope you enjoy it!

Materials

• Wooden dowels - I used 1/8” diameter dowels.
• Construction paper - I used some old, sun faded construction paper in warm tones to go with the color scheme for the wedding.
• Some way to help you layout your design, computer or otherwise - I used Photoshop, but you could essentially use any program you are comfortable with.
• Craft glue
• Sewing machine set with a zipper foot
