From the popular Country Heritage Collection, the Stars and Stripes Area Rug is hand-hooked from the finest 100% wool. Created using a fine petit-point technique, this wool rug (
http://www.homedecorators.com/Rugs/Wool/) features precise designs with the lovely look of needlepoint. With a richly colored motif, each of these area rugs (
http://www.homedecorators.com/Rugs/) feature a design that echoes the United States flag in a remarkably dense, textured and looped pile. Its design includes a striped red and light gray border, and deep blue interior with light gray stars. The smaller size is perfect for greeting visitors as they come in the door, and the larger sizes add warm color and patriotic style to the recreation room, sunroom or kitchen.
Artisans carefully craft the impressive Stars Stained Glass Window Hanging, from Home Decorators Collection’s Tiffany-style art glass collection (
http://www.homedecorators.com/Home_Decor/Wall_Decor/Art_Glass_Windows/). Hand-cut glass is
copper foiled, then soldered together in the classic Tiffany-style. When the sun hits it, white stars dance spectacularly through the window on a colorful blue background with a red and white border. It’s available in rectangular or half-moon shapes to meet individual space requirements. Metal chains are included with each stained glass art selection, so it’s easy to hang.
Those who possess a flag with personal significance will certainly want to exhibit their treasure in an elegant Flag Display Case (

Mount it to the wall or place it on a tabletop or mantle with pride. Each one holds a standard 3’ x 5’ or 4’ x 6’ folded flag (not included) and is sure to be a point of interest to visitors, and it’s a great conversation starter. Also available is a Flag Case with Shadow Box that can showcase military medals and ribbons, or any other important memorabilia.
