With berries in season soon, how about a flag cake?

I remember many resepectful and beautiful flag burning ceremonies to dispose of old flags. Girl Scouts sponsored them and might have a script and ideas of where to get the flag.

Back in Iowa, a 4Her made a very neat flag out of a sheet of corrugated tin. The stripes were painted on the "ribs". It was all done to look old, and was quite impressive. I think it even went to the state fair.

Another neat one I've seen was painted on an old window screen-looked weathered and worn--kind of counrty-ish.

I posted this unit study we did a couple years ago. Some of the ideas might be what you are looking for.
