On our way back from the NTA in Escanaba last month,my wifes friend Pauline that was with us,counted 103 American flags between Escanaba and the Soo. My wife does quite a bit of beadwork,and was inspired to make these pair of earrings.

Very nice bead work. Just a little suggestion; I would have it hanging from the blue corner (stars), but I can cut a Canadian some slack for hanging the way they are.

Left ones have a good colour combo. Looks good. See lots on Canada day,but not much the rest of the year. Betsy says thanks for the compliments on her work. During covid there was a big up tick with flags on lots of vehicles. Just people ticked off. Some were even upside down which I didn’t agree with, what a kick in the nards to our friends who never came home….old wars and recent wars. I notice pride (the real pride) every trip I make to the states. In the last 20 years the furthest I’ve been is Escanaba. I’m guessing the American pride drops off in some areas/states?

Nice to have a wife that is handy in the crafts world. Beautiful work!
