Camper Flag Holder

 RDB asked me to find a way to display Old Glory when we camp so I went to the interwebs, searching for an easy, mobile way to get a flag pole on our camper.  It didn't take long at all for me to find just what we needed.

FYI, the links below are Amazon, but not affiliated (in other words, I don't make any money when you click on them) I just want this to be as easy for you as it was for me!

Here we go! You'll need:

One heavy duty glass suction holder thingy: (this comes as a set of two, the pricing was great, and we're considering hanging dual flags so it worked for our project)

One pair of ring-around-the-flagpole-so-it-won't-furl-up-on-itself flag connectors: (this is a SET of two, but you need a set of two for each flagpole  - so if you're making this for two flags, be sure to buy TWO of these sets)

Your choice of flags - but be sure to order them with GROMMETS and not banner style. The ones we're flying are 3'x5' which feels a little large up close, but is the perfect size for the nose of our mammoth camper.

A length of 1" PVC pipe (not pictured).  We happened to have a piece that's about 5' left over from another project in the garage, so I just grabbed that for this weekend; I'll need a second piece for the other flag and will probably spray paint them both black, but for now, this works.

Ok, assembly time!

Take your swivel rings and attach them to your PVC pole the appropriate distance apart to be able to hang the flag with just a little bit of slack.  Too tight and the swiveling feature won't work and your flag will furl up against itself in the wind. 

Find a smooth place on the side of your camper and suction the glass hangers to your rig. It helps if you have a tall, handsome bearded man to assist with this, especially if you're a short little lady like me. *wink*

Once the glass hanger is affixed, you'll simply slide the non-flagged end of the PVC pipe into the handle of the holder and, viola! you're done! (Pardon the pic with all the mayflies - they really really like the water dripping from the AC and the light we leave on to illuminate the flags overnight). 

So, there you go! You can proudly display Old Glory and your favorite team's flags when camping.  Hope you enjoy this little project as much as we did!
