Find the flags you want here
Copy one, paste into Word, drag it to the size you want & copy it.
Then flip one of the pictures by dragging the edge across the picture & out the other side. Put the two pictures back to back, so they will wrap around your cocktail stick. Repeat for the other flags you need & print the page.
You can also flip picures in some paint programs but I find the Word method easier & quicker

And now you have to spill the beans on, er, why?

ToysAreLikeDogs · 10/12/2008 00:00

sandwich flags but you've already found a make-yer-own site

GoodWilfToAllMN · 10/12/2008 00:03

Ah. Those International Party Picks. For occasions when Swiss and Canadian Sandwiches are in particular demand.

ToysAreLikeDogs · 10/12/2008 00:09

wtf would be in a Canadian Sandwich ?

Maple syrup and Sasquatch??

ToysAreLikeDogs · 10/12/2008 00:09

I HAVE missed you

UnfortunatelyMe · 10/12/2008 00:16

Oh no...do I have to confess???
On facebook, on the playfish games(whos got the biggest brain etc) there is a game called Geo Challenge...
Me and the dds are completely hooked and in competition with each other..
The first part is knowing the flags, the second part is naming the shape of the country and the third part, which is where the flags come in, is that you have to pin where the country is on a world map.
All hugely educational for facebook
So I said I would get a big map so we could study it...and to have the flags in the right places would just be perfect!

(We dont have a Telly, and we do need to get a life, I know)

Couldnt you just use those sandwich pics with a tiny bit of blue tack on the bottom to make them stand up?

I bet a Canadian Sandwich is also an interesting sexual position involving Mounties.
