I love flags. A few months ago I made one similar to Layla's at The Lettered Cottage. You can see the one I made HERE, I thought it'd be neat to make another one, this time using my faux-aged wood technique.
I started with a 3 1/2" fence board from Lowes.
I applied Apple Cider Vinegar with steel wool. As I've done with my other projects, I put two coats on, as the first coat generally looks spotty....
After I got the boards the way I wanted them, I attached a couple of pieces to the back to hold everything together. I then attached two hooks so I could hang it on the wall.
After everything was attached, I glued six little starfish on with superglue. I purchased the starfish on ebay.
Be sure to do ALL of the assembly before attaching the starfish as they can be fragile.

And here's the finished product. It was such a simple and inexpensive way to add some fun to my wall.
Thanks for visiting!
