The idea came from someone sharing this tut:http://www.creationsbykara.com/2011/06/fourth-of-july-craft-framed-flag-tutorial.html
the wording came from another framed flag that I could not afford to buy, so I made my own version

I love your framed flag! Did you also make the patriotic ball beside it?

Love them both. Would you mind giving directions on how you made the ball? Would love to have something like that next to my grandfather's flag.

Thanks for the directions! Now all I have to do is find a replacement for the styrofoam ball - thought it was a baseball at first - wow they aren't cheap are they? lol.
