There are lots of South African flags to buy out there, but my daughter Christy and I decided to make an Indie Flag Garland to mark the occasion.
She insisted that I draw the original pictures - and I can't draw. She then worked her magic with my line drawings of a leaf, mealie[maize], heart, hadeda and agapanthus flower and made them into a pattern, which she printed on recycled paper to become a patterned South African Flag!
Thanks for the mention - Jo of Coelho Culture! Our first customer.

That is the best version of the flag I've seen! Lovely stuff guys
i think your collaboration shows so well here...
That's so great! I love the pics you and your daughter chose. Clever, creative ladies you are.
Lovely flags - you should definitely combine your creative talents more in the future.
i love these! world cup has been so fun- i love everybody's spirit.
I love LOVE your SA flag garland! I don't watch sport, it is just not my thing, but I am participating in the soccer mania in a BIG way - I plant a flag in a potplant outside our house every morning, I have a flag flying from my car window, I shout and scream and dance in front of the TV and generally drive L'Usband bonkers. And last night I cried when we were given a red card by that horrible ref. So harsh!
oeeee, I love that!
My heart is totally in South Africa at the moment.
I love your stuff -- and your blog! Can you tell me where you got the rose picture on the mantel?
