AND SUCH-PATRIOTIC ITEMS
Here is a patriotic lanyard to
attach your office key or
name tag.  This is indeed a
handmade item-- I bought
the material, looked high and
low for swivel clips; my
husband measured and cut
the material; my sister-in-law
sewed them.  It is a beautiful
lanyard; the photo does not
do it justice.  I use mine at
work and also use it for a
pin holder, pinning my
patriotic pins on it, making it
very special to me.  (See my
bottlecap pins.)  The
lanyards are $4.00 each and
I have about 70 of them.
When the 911 tragedy occurred, my
son was already stationed overseas.  
Like many, I immediately wanted
flags and patriotic pins.  Stores
didn't have them right away, and
once they did, they sold out
quickly.  I turned to the web where
I bought material for lanyards and
found my unique bottlecap pins
which I have not seen anywhere!  
Things weren't sold one piece at a
time, though, so I bought a large roll
of lanyard material and packs of 50
pins.  Trying to buying swivel clips
for the lanyard was one of the
hardest internet chores I had.  
Either they wanted to sell already-
made or they wanted to supply
pieces to a business by the
thousands.  But I'm pleased with
my patriotic items and have many
extras to share.  I like them; you
will too.
The waving flag
patch is 1 1/4 x 1
inch.  The other
patch is 2 x 1 3/8
inch.  The waving
flag is $.75 and the
regular patch is
$1.00.
The above three pins are shown as two pins just so you can see what the back looks like but they are
sold individually.  The bottle cap pins are 1 1/4 inches and the waving flag is a 1 inch pin.  The bottle cap
pins are $2.50 each; the waving flag is $1.50.
