The three short swaps
Most of the year the front step follows the seasons. Three times a year it follows a date instead, and the flag only stays up for a few weeks. This range holds those three: the Christmas Porch Lantern Flag, the Porch-light Jack-o’-Lantern Flag and the Stars and Bunting Fourth of July Flag.
The Christmas flag is a black porch lantern glowing warm, with a sprig of evergreen and a red bow and the words Merry Christmas. There is no snow and no snowman on it on purpose, so it looks right on an Ohio porch in December and on a veranda in Brisbane or Auckland in the middle of summer. The Halloween flag is one friendly jack-o’-lantern on the top step under the porch light, open for trick-or-treaters without frightening the smallest ones on the walk. The Fourth of July flag is original stars-and-stripes bunting, not a national flag with anything printed over it.
When each one goes up
In the north: the jack-o’-lantern from mid-October to November 1, the lantern from the weekend after Thanksgiving until the tree comes down, and the bunting from Memorial Day weekend to the Fourth. Each one is made after you order, 1-3 business days, then 7-14 business days in transit. Allow up to 17 business days before the week you want it up; that is an estimate from our stated times, not a guarantee, and we make no delivery-by-holiday promise.
No licensed characters, team names or official emblems appear on any design. Every flag is a flag only, printed on one side; the design shows through in reverse on the back. See the Shipping & Delivery page for the full times.
