It's a bit on the time consuming side but I think they have turned out super cute.  Thank goodness for my sticker maker or I'd be gluing each of these puppies one by one.

    Love them!  I am seriously about to go and buy a xyron machine.  What size have you been using for these? The 2.5 inch machine?

    Yes, I have the 2.5" one.  I think it's totally worth the money just for the drink flags alone.  LOL.  If you buy it, make sure to use one of Michaels' 40% or 50% off coupons and it will hardly cost a thing.

    Thanks Ladies!

    I had seller buttercreambee on Etsy create the designs for me.  She sent me all three designs for $10.00. 

    I bought the Xyron machine (2.5") for $24.99 but I used a 50% off coupon from Michaels and I had a store credit so it came to like $3.58 out of pocket.

    I bought plain white cardstock from Michaels (2/$5.00) & 500 black ball head stirrers for $9.90 from barsupplies.com.

    I printed the drink flags onto the cardstock from my printer.  Cut them with a papercutter I have and then I run them through the Xyron machine. It puts an adhesive on the flags so I dont have to glue each one. I fold the ends together but do not seal the entire thing.  I leave enough room so I can slide the stirrer on.  Then I seal the entire flag and Waaa Laaa!

    Hope this helps.  Feel free to shoot me an email if you have any questions!
