I admit that until recently I have paid little attention to the Flags of various countries. I knew only our own flag, of course, and the flags of Canada and the UK.
All of us now know the Ukrainian flag.
A neighbor who moved in across the hall from me about a year ago has had two identical criss-crossed flags on her door since moving in. I wondered what they were but since they are red, white, and blue, I thought they were meant to reflect the US colors.
I just discovered that they are the flag of effing Russia! A band of white on top, followed by a band of blue and then a band of red.
So I am looking for a US and a Ukranian flag of the same size to criss-cross on my door. The size is small, like a little child would carry.
EDIT UPDATE: I found that Wal-Mart carries both the US and Ukranian flags in the size I want.
Where can I get those flags in that size?

Good luck with the neighbor.

(21,341 posts)I am looking for, so I will keep searching.
The size I want is very small, to fit on an apartment door.
The cloth needs to be around 2 inches by 4 inches, with a 6 inch pole.

I found the one below, but they're out of stock. You'll likely run into that a lot on Ukraine flags. It does appear that Amazon has some. Same search criteria, if you do Amazon. 😎

(21,341 posts)Wal-Mart and Amazon have both flags in 4 inch by 6 inch sizes.
I used "mini flags" in my search.

(10,885 posts)TFG's supporters holding mini-Russian flags emblazoned with his name? It was a great gag by two known political pranksters.

The culprit was identified as liberal activist Ryan Clayton, who told BuzzFeed News that he spoke with a fake Russian accent as he told CPAC attendees: Trump and Putin great leaders, yes?
An accomplice in the stunt, Jason Charter, said he and Clayton gave away about 1,000 flags.
Most people saw Trumps name on the flags and didnt give a second thought to the fact that they were Russian, Charter told BuzzFeed.
Both men are members of Americans Take Action, a self-styled network of populists whose Web site calls for Trumps impeachment.
