Framed burlap & Fabric ruffled flag

Burlap flag

I found this darling idea for a framed ruffled burlap flag here.  She has a really great tutorial showing how she made hers.  I loved the idea with the burlap I wanted to give it my own twist, I also wanted a deeper red and blue color.  I choose to use some 4th of July fabrics I had on hand for the red and blue sections of my flag. As I began gluing and ruffling layers.  I felt like it still need something more.  This is where the lace came in.  I glued a layer of white lace in between my stripe layers.  The lace just gave it one more texture and added that special touch.  For the blue corner I used a decorative denim and then cut a star out of some lace fabric.  I glued the star onto the denim and then glued jute around the star.  I chose a black decorative frame to place my ruffled flag in.  I felt the black made my flag pop!  I can’t wait to put this up to celebrate the 4th of July!
