 COLD SEASON   It's that time of year when family members are getting sick--runny noses, headaches, chills and fevers. I have put together a few things I keep on hand all year. BeeKeeper's Propolis Throat Spray. This stuff helps keep my family from getting sick. The taste isn't medicinal at all and its good for kids and adults.   Beekeeper's Propolis Soothing Lozenges. I bought these with my last purchase. My kids HATE cough drops, so hopefully they will use these. Oscillococcinum. Once my family does get sick, these help tremendously! My son had a fever 2 days before a soccer tournament. I gave him these and within 3 hours he was up and wanted to go to school. Don't worry, I kept him home for the day. He was able to play in his soccer tournament. I have given these to coworkers and everyone loves their effectiveness. Safe for kids and adults. This post contains affiliate links.

I have been wanting to make one of these for a very long time. I have 2 weeks off from work and decided now is a great time to make one. It was so easy and fun! There are so many tutorials out there and ideas of how to put them together. I used white double sided bias tape. Each flag measures 6 inches tall and 6 inches wide. It really makes our plain fireplace look great. I think I might have to make another one that goes with that room's colors. Happy Sewing!
