How to Design a Custom St. Patrick’s Day Flag or Parade Banner
There are a few easy steps you’ll need to follow to successfully design and order a customized Irish flag or banner for St. Patrick’s Day.
1. Brainstorm
To get yourself pointed in the right direction when it comes to creating your own unique St. Patrick’s Day flag or banner, you’ll need to start by asking yourself a few questions:
What will you be using the flag or banner for?
Is what you’re designing going to be a decoration for your home, or will you be marching in a parade with it? Will you be displaying your custom St. Patrick’s Day flag outdoors, or indoors?
Knowing what you’ll be using your flag or banner for will help you to determine the materials that should be used to make the flag and may inform the design you ultimately decide to use. As such, this is a good first step to take as you approach creating a custom flag or banner.
What’s the design you have in mind?
Do you have a specific look in mind for your flag or banner? Are you creating something completely customized, or will you be trying to replicate the look of another St. Patrick’s Day product you saw and liked with a bit of personalization added in?
Having a good sense of the design you’d like to create will help to give you direction and narrow your options a bit as you’re brainstorming.
What’s your budget?
Do you have a set budget in mind for creating your custom St. Patrick’s Day flag or parade banner? Determining how much you are willing to spend will help you to figure out what’s feasible in terms of your custom design, flag or banner size, material, and more.
2. Choose a Flag Maker to Work With
