Supplies: Flag Door Hanger kit, wood glue, foam brush, scrapbook paper, ribbon and vinyl applicator
Paint: Light Ivory, Midnight Blue, Tompte Red
Paint back, sides and top, middle and bottom stripes red. Set aside to let dry.
Next, take the star and square and paint with midnight blue. You will not need to paint the entire front or back of the square. You will be covering this with paper and the paper will stick better to the bare wood, rather than paint. Only paint around the edges of the wood.
Trace and cut the paper to fit the square. Place a small amount of wood glue on the wood and brush into a thin layer across the entire piece of wood. Line paper up and smooth out, getting all bubble and creases with a vinyl applicator. Once the glue is dry, you can sand the edges of this piece.
Once dry, paint the remaining stripes light ivory. You may need a couple of coats to cover up any red you may have gotten on them.
Tie ribbon of choice onto the star and glue to the papered side of the square. (I used a glue gun to make sure it was secure.)
Apply hardware and glue square with star onto the flag. This can be used as a door hanger, hung on a wall or hung on a post which are also sold at The Wood Station.
