The flag those colonies flew is one of the most recognizable and storied banners in world history, its circle of stars arranged in a pattern so simple and so bold that it still stops people in their tracks nearly 250 years later. Whether Betsy Ross truly stitched the very first one remains a matter of delightful historical debate (she claimed it herself, decades later, through her grandson — and honestly, who's going to argue?), but the design she's credited with endures as an icon of American origins. This beautifully crafted ornament brings that founding moment to life in miniature, with a waving flag rendered in vivid reds, whites, and blues, and all thirteen stars holding their proud circular formation on the canton.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOfficially licensed as part of the America250™ commemorative collection, this ornament carries a vintage-inspired finish that gives it the warm, storied feeling of something pulled from a patriot's attic — in the best possible way. The reverse side features the \"1776\" date and additional commemorative detail, making it a piece worth turning over in your hands and admiring from every angle. It's the kind of ornament that invites a history lesson, a toast, or at the very least a heartfelt moment of appreciation for the audacity of those original thirteen.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCrafted from durable resin with a generous helping of paint and mica accents for rich color depth and a satisfying shimmer, this flag ornament hangs lightly and beautifully on any tree or garland. It arrives wrapped securely, ready to become an annual tradition — a small, swaying reminder every December of where it all began.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e Resin (90%) with paint and mica accent finish (10%); multicolor in classic red, white, and blue with gold-tone accents\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Historic 13-star Betsy Ross flag design with circle-of-stars canton; \"1776\" commemorative detail on reverse; officially licensed America250™\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 3.625\" (approximately 9.2 cm)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOccasion:\u003c\/strong\u003e Commemorates America's founding in 1776 and the 250th anniversary milestone, 1776–2026\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Kurt Adler","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47873591574681,"sku":"210000128093","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0421\/8204\/9945\/files\/ljplqmwd6qz694ejzh8u.jpg?v=1780415656","url":"https:\/\/www.countrychristmasloft.com\/products\/thirteen-stars-one-dream-the-1776-colonies-flag-ornament","provider":"The Country Christmas Loft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
