I've been looking online for an Advent flag to no avail. One of those full size decorative house flags, maybe with an Advent wreath, or O Come O Come Emmanuel, or something to that effect. Does anyone know where I could find something like that?

Thank you!!

I found some here and here, but they are pretty big.
Hope this helps.

I never thought about looking at church banners - great idea! But they are too large.

Marilyn - you are right - Christian Book Distributors does have beautiful flags, but unfortunately not an Advent one (that I can find).

I'll keep looking!

Heather, are looking for indoor or outdoor? I was kind of assuming outdoor like for those decorative wrought iron poles - would that be what you are looking for?

If so I found a few of those type that might be passable for Advent
Peace Love Joy Hope - this one reminded me of the "4 words" ideas we have been discussing here.

Ornament flag from flagandbanner.com - though not explicitly Advent is in purples and pinks, it says Advent to me

Dove flag - again the color purple could make it Advent.

There just doesn't seem to be much out there specficially Advent oriented. This Catholic company has a lot of Christmas banners but no Advent ones. I figured if the companies like these and Autom and Catholic Direct were aware of any they would carry them. Looks like a market that needs to be tapped.

You know these aren't too hard to make, using nylon material and some Wonder Under to secure it, then a zigzag stitch to prevent fraying (or a non sew option would be some kind of decorative glue/adhesive around the edges).
