The nautical flags that are used on boats and ships have an important meaning behind them besides looking nautical on clothing and home decor, they are used to display "code" for other ships that may be in distress or have a scuba diver on board. They have 26+different meanings depending on the color and the way the color is displayed on the flag itself. Pretty cool, huh?
Well, I'm using them in an accessory form. They will still be represented in a way that goes back to what they were originally used for BUT having them go by your first or last name. Preps are drawn to anything nautical, especially Maryland and anyone in the south, so why not add something super unique to your wardrobe with this little over the shoulder bag.
They are hand made out of duck canvas in colors that represent each flag and letter perfectly! The measurement of the bag is 8 x 8 which is the perfect size for a little wallet, keys, and your cell phone.
The shoulder strap is hand braided out of cotton roping to give the bag an even more nautical look!
To hold the opening together, two braided ropes are used to tie the bag together so nothing of value falls out.
The inside lining a cotton blue and white striped fabric to give the bag, if it wasn't nautical enough, an even more nautical feel.
Best part about this bag? It's TOTALLY custom made! Each bag will take 1-3 weeks to make and be shipped out to it's new home. I know what you're thinking, why is this awesome bag taking so long to get to me?! Well, I want to make sure it is properly made with quality care before getting to you.
