We have a rock Jim found as a little kid. He somehow decided it was a dinosaur egg and kept it, trying to get it to hatch under his bed. When his mom moved house a few years ago, she found it and had her sister paint it to look like the ‘egg’ is cracking open, and the dinosaur is about to hatch. It makes me smile crazy big every time I see it and think of baby-Jim trying to hatch it.

Here is my flag from @Kwality570. I’ve had it for awhile, but didn’t open it right away. I apologize for taking so long to post. I really like this flag a lot! She went with my hippie theme. The colors and polka dots and the fringe on the bottom are all so pretty. The pom-pom trim is a neat addition! Thank so much Kwality!
She sent me a lovely card too.
Here’s an extra pic of my cat Rudy checking out my flag. I thought I had shooed him away before i snapped the pic but there he is!

Both sides are equally gorgeous but I posted the back without realizing it, I missed the birds!
I hope these pics are good enough for you to use @Harlan, I’m afraid I’m not much of a photographer.

Yes!! Thank you!! (cameras and I are not friends - I struggle with them) 
Spiderweb got a bit wobbly in transit, I see. If I ever decide to do that again I’ll have to make it a bit more rigid or something.
@MightyMitochondria @AIMR (blushes) Thank you very kindly!!

I think it’s looks very organic & authentic.
Some thinned white glue brushed on can act like a strong starch, if you do something similar in future.

The theme and compilation of all of those colorful bits is absolutely fabulous! And I got a bonus fancy blue button to boot.
Thank you!!!
