Fun Personalized Flags to Mark Your Territory

Posted on May 26, 2011 by greg
Having personalized flags mark your territory is still a good and refreshing way to establish limits. Although many people may say that this one’s pretty narcissistic, many people can just view it as a pun (with or without an allusion) rather than a serious “get out of my way” notice.
Here are some tips on how to have those custom flags fun:
Use a cartoon. If you have a little money or you have a friend who can draw or do caricatures really well, ask (or pay) to have yours done so you can print this out and put it on your flag. The funnier the face looks, the better. You may make it look exaggeratingly angry or a freaky-looking face that says the place is yours. It’s a soft way of telling people to keep out.
Use a fun quote—with a twist. There are saying which are meant to keep outsiders from trespassing. For example: “Trespassers will be shot. Survivors will be shot again.” You can change the word “shot” to “raped” or “eaten” or “wet”. Pair up with a fun looking graphic so it won’t look too intimidating.
Use fun colors. Now, if you have something else in mind rather than a cartoon or use a fun quote, the least that you can do is to use fun colors for your custom flag. Add a burst of energy with an electrifying orange. Mimic the sunshine through a bright yellow color. Appear cool with an aquamarine paint with a clear gloss polish.
See, there are many ways to keep those people out and your personalized flags fun!
