The American flag must not be incorporated in making other items like bedding's, clothes and drapes. Buntings in red, blue and white may be used for decorative purposes. The blue should be at the top, the red should be at the bottom and the white in the middle.
The flag should not be used as a uniform or any part of it. People and officials should use a lapel pin or flag patch instead to inform citizens about their roles.
Statues, structures and monuments must not be covered by a flag.
Ceilings should not be covered by a flag.
When using a single staff, do not put the national flag together with advertising materials.
The flag should also never be used to make napkins, tissues and boxes. It should not be placed on collars, handkerchiefs, pillowcases and cushions. It should not be raised in a flat manner. It should always stay high and waving in the wind. The flag should not get in touch with the ground and must always be in top quality. The surface should be free of dirt, marks and drawings.
Before June 14, 1923 or Flag Day, there were no laws and rules about the proper presentation of the United States Flag. Now, the National Flag Code is used to show people how to properly use and take care of the banner. The National Flag Conference consisted of several national agencies and people from the Navy and Army. The U.S. Flag today is treated with more respect and pride because of these regulations.
