This summer has been many things but it has not been crafty. So when I decided to quickly assemble some sandcastle flags for a trip to the beach, I was compelled to capture this short but blissful moment of creativity.
Simple as can be and splash-ready these colorful pennants are simple triangular snips from the sides of a shopping bag ...
that are glued from inside the fold to wooden toothpicks.
Because any castle no matter what size ...
becomes much more regal when festooned with a flag!

I agree they remind me of flags flying from turrets!

I love your little flags. I love any kind of flag -especially little ones.
Cute flags! Mine would be pink and my boys would say, "what?" Glad I stopped by...and I learned a new word: festooned!
Perfect! Kit
So clever! I bet your kids love finishing off their creations with those fun little flags!

Very cute! It wouldn't surprise me one bit if you also starting creating sandcastle furniture as well. :-) My summer hasn't been terribly crafty either but it's time to get back in the doily factory and make some things. ;amy
So so cute!

I love these little flags, and the colors that you used. What gorgeous photographs against the sand. I bet your boys loved this idea, and Mommy love always makes everything better, especially building sand castles in the sand.
