Rustic American Flag, Distressed American Flag

This wood American flag features a rustic distressed look with a satin clear coat.  I used red, white and blue stain so the wood grain shows through on this wooden flag.  The stars are painted with flat white paint then the flag is distressed.  The flag is then finished with a satin clear coat.  This is a handmade solid wood flag.  They make great office or man cave decorations. They are also great office gift ideas. If you have a teacher in your life, this flag would make an excellent teacher gift idea.  This flag would be great classroom decor, especially for the Pledge of Allegiance. take pride in my work and ensure that there are no gaps between the joined boards, sand all surfaces down smooth, I then sand the sharp edges off of all sides that can eventually chip, crack or split if left un-sanded. After all of the building is done, I paint, stain and/or distress your item which gives it that modern yet rustic look that everyone loves!  Then a satin clear coat is applied to protect the finish for years to come. I build this flag using a similar method that I used in the Thin Blue Line video.  This flag is beautiful to see in person.  These flags are available for purchase in our online store or on our Etsy store.  If you are looking for military gift ideas, I encourage you to check out our Etsy store linked above.
