Vintage Wood Americana Heart Flag

3 Materials
My latest DIY project featuring the American Flag. I decided on a heart shape to add some drama to the piece.
This was the before. A cute little elephant saying I love you, but it was kind of drab and not very fun.
I painted the background several shades of blue and gray, then cut out a heart pattern. For the complete tutorial, please check out my website @ http://countrydesignhome.com/2016/04/05/vintage-americana/
I painted all of the stripes first, then added the stars in a scattered pattern. The shape of the heart and the slat openings made it difficult to create an even pattern, so I went with a random placement instead.
