One Year Later! https://www.mericanflagcompany.com/one-year-later/ Sun, 23 Jan 2022 15:18:34 +0000 https://www.mericanflagcompany.com/?p=4919 Our company has now passed it’s one year mark and we are so very grateful to still be doing business. We have added new products to our store like Apparel along with a long requested coffee table design. We have also added a payment checkout with Sezzle that now allows our customers to purchase our items with no interest payments. You can read more about their service on our page here “How sezzle works“. there is a link on our home page that will give you $5 if you sign up for new customers.

So what has happened in the last year? Well we started working with small tools in our garage to now having a large desktop CNC machine and Laser engraver. we added products like address signs and cutting boards to our growing catalog. We have worked on better ways of making our products so the look and feel to keep improving our quality. Before we used to drive pin nails through the front of our flags but this was leaving a mark on the face and this was not making us happy so we started driving them through the back. seems like an obvious choice but this required us to make a whole new clamping jig and mounting table to build the flags this way. We purchased new and better tools that would leave less marks on the finished products. We now ship on average 10,000 miles a month to customer all over the United States and we continue to grow. looking back at the last year we are very blessed to have come this far and thank all of our customers for their support. We are not a large company but a family owed small business who works everyday to keep this going. And we couldn’t be happier. Thank you for a wonderful year!

A story about us in local news paper https://www.mericanflagcompany.com/a-story-about-us-in-local-news-paper/ Sun, 04 Jul 2021 14:58:58 +0000 https://www.mericanflagcompany.com/?p=3213 A local news paper “Temple Daily Telegram” did a story about us today and we couldn’t be more humbled and honored about it. Written by David Stone it goes into detail on how we got started and some of the inspiration that goes into our building process. The best quote I think is “I’m not going to make and sell something unless I wold be proud to have it in my own home” This was said during a phone interview when I was asked about my passion for what we do. It’s really a great article and I give all the thanks to a great writer.

I am so happy today that words just can’t explain the depth of it. I will be framing this and putting it up in our shop.

If you ever wanted to start something and feel like it’s out of your reach. All I can say it get up and do it. With me everything started with the first cut. that very first cut in my garage with nothing more than a handsaw and home depot bucket as a seat and now become a full business. Dream big and go for bigger! never settle.

A brief History of the American Flag https://www.mericanflagcompany.com/a-brief-history-of-the-american-flag/ Fri, 23 Apr 2021 16:57:08 +0000 https://www.mericanflagcompany.com/?p=1968 Did you know our flag used to have a pine tree on it? Yes, it’s true, in 1775 when the American Revolution broke out many colonists didn’t fight under a united flag. Instead we had many versions or regimental flags. One of the most famous is shown with a coiled rattlesnake and the phrase “Don’t Tread on Me” while the most likely unknown was one with a pine tree and the phase “An Appeal to Heaven” on it.

The union jack flag was used in 1775 but after George Washington realized that using a flag that closely resembles that of our enemy probably wasn’t a good idea. And credit is giving to Betsy Ross who made the first American Flag in 1776 showing 13 stars for each of the 13 colonies and 13 of alternating red and white strips.

It was very uncommon for individuals to fly the American Flag until the Civil War broke out in 1861. This made the Stars and Strips suddenly popular symbol in the North.

But is wasn’t until William Howard Taft signed an executive order in 1912 that clarified what the American Flag should look like. In 1916 Woodrow Wilson issued a proclamation that officially establishing a nationwide observance of Flag Day on June 14, the anniversary of the Flag Resolution of 1777 but is wasn’t until 1949 when President Harry Truman signed legislation designating June 14 of each year as Nation Flag Day

Our flag consists of 13 alternating red and white strips representing the original colonies and 50 stars, one for each state in the union.
