Great prices, order in bulk!  These lapel pins make great giveaways for parades, or hand them out before the fireworks show.  Order enough for everyone in your company to wear one to work on the 4th of July and show your patriotism proudly.<\/p>\n<p>Popular with VFW clubs, American legions, great for parade handouts!<\/p>\n<p>On the 4th, as a kid, we would spend most of the day at the big park 2 towns over watching the fire department set up the fireworks, having a picnic lunch, and fishing off the dock.  There were mini donut and popcorn vendors set up, and for the last few hours before dark and the start of the fireworks show, the community band (my dad was the tuba player!) would play patriotic songs and oldies.  I remember the band members all wearing <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/lapelpins\/patriotic\/usflag\">flag pins on their lapels<\/a> along with their skimmer hats decorated with a red,white, and blue ribbon as the hatband.<\/p>\n<p>For an even more unique flag look, check out these other <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/lapelpins\/patriotic?page=1\">patriotic lapel pins<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/lapelpins\/patriotic\/heartflag\"><\/a> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/lapelpins\/patriotic\/i24\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-583\" title=\"0-lapelpins-patriotic-i24_sm\" src=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/0-lapelpins-patriotic-i24_sm.jpg\" alt=\"country shaped us flag pin\" width=\"144\" height=\"105\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-582\" title=\"0-lapelpins-patriotic-heartflag_sm\" src=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/0-lapelpins-patriotic-heartflag_sm.jpg\" alt=\"heart shaped us flag pin\" width=\"108\" height=\"107\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/lapelpins\/patriotic\/peaceflag\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-584 aligncenter\" title=\"0-lapelpins-patriotic-peaceflag_sm\" src=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/0-lapelpins-patriotic-peaceflag_sm.jpg\" alt=\"us flag peace sign\" width=\"126\" height=\"126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/0-lapelpins-patriotic-peaceflag_sm.jpg 126w, https:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/0-lapelpins-patriotic-peaceflag_sm-120x120.jpg 120w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 126px) 100vw, 126px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/lapelpins\/patriotic\/supportribbonflag\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-585\" title=\"0-lapelpins-patriotic-supportribbonflag_sm\" src=\"http:\/\/www.imprintitems.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/04\/0-lapelpins-patriotic-supportribbonflag_sm.jpg\" alt=\"support our troops us flag pin\" width=\"129\" height=\"150\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>National Flag Day (June 14th) and Independence Day, aka the 4th of July, are quickly approaching!
