OK, so Apartment Therapy has featured Union Jack Roundups before, but with the popular style constantly being reinvented, we thought we’d bring you up-to-date on the famous look.
Did you know the term “Jack” refers to any flag other than the national flag flown by a ship? Jacks are often flown when the ship is dressed on special occasions. Luckily, you don’t need an excuse to dress up your living room.

What about French flags? ;-)
I made a really simple but (i think) cool upgrade to my ikea lamp by wrapping it in a union jack and I love it. Here is a picture of it, granted I was moving at the time, so the room is somewhat sparse.

Having a Union Jack flag hanging on the wall reminds of my ex-boyfriends old college dorm room.
I covet Mad Viv's rug and the Smeg, even though I have nowhere to put them.
Where's the dresser?
