oh boy winter is here and that means Thanksgiving, Christmas and in general, snowy scenes! for me, this also means… Winter flags! I like Winter flags because they provide a calming, warming, and comforting atmosphere on those cold winter days. What better way to warmly greet your guests than to welcome them with open arms, using a warm and cute Winter flag?
Winter flags serve many different purposes. Not only do Winter Flags provide a friendly greeting to your home, but they also serve as a holiday decoration. Winter flags are an easy transition to the ever- changing seasons. Show your excitement for the season with a Holly Snowman. If it’s the simple things of Winter that you want to convey, you can do it with a Couple of Chickadees resting on a branch surrounded by pine cones and snow. For the child in you, a vast variety of Winter Flags are at your disposal. Winter flags are indispensable!

so here’s a list of those obvious things that many of us didn’t know about flags until we read this post!
- It is customary to display the flag from sunrise to sunset. However, if it is displayed after dark, it should be illuminated.
- The flag should never have anything placed upon it, nor on any part of it, nor attached to it, any mark, insignia, letter, word, figure, design, picture, or drawing of any nature.
- The flag, when carried in a procession with another flag or flags, should be either on the marching right; that is, to the flag’s own right, or if there is a line of other flags, in front and center of that line.
- The flag of the United States should be at the center and at the highest point of the group when a number of flags are grouped and displayed from staffs. When the flags are displayed at the same height, the U.S. flag should be on it’s own right, or on the left as it appears to the viewer.
- No other flag or pennant should be placed above the U.S. flag when more than one flag is being flown on a single pole. The only exception is during church services conducted by naval chaplains at sea, for personnel of the navy, in which case the church pennant may be flown above the U.S. flag.
- In an auditorium or other public speaking forum, the flag should occupy the position of honor at the speaker’s right, or on the left as it is seen by the audience. In the same setting, if the flag is to be displayed flat, it should be placed above and behind the speaker. The star field should be uppermost and to the viewer’s left.
- Keep the U.S., and all flags, clean. Dirt is sharp; it cuts fabrics, dulls colors and causes wear. Most outdoor flags can be washed in a mild detergent and thoroughly rinsed. Indoor flags should be dry cleaned.
- Flag care is related to pole care. Keep your pole in good condition. Rusty, pock marked poles chafe and tear flag fabric and stitching. Rust and scale cause permanent stains.
- Do not neglect frays on your flag. Watch the corners of the “fly end” of your flag. This is normally the first area to show signs of wear. Trim off the worn hem and re-hem the end. It is perfectly proper, and when done promptly, can greatly extend the life of your flag.
