A Made in the USA Christmas

Christmas in our household is a great time to celebrate Made in America products! While every gift we purchase isn’t Made in the USA, we do our best to support US manufacturing whenever possible. This year, most items were purchased through Amazon. Here are a few of our favorite finds:

Craig Frames 5″x7″ photo frames

Since we had a new addition to our family this year, we gifted an adorable picture of our little girl in these well-built frames.

Timeless Frames 8″x10″ Photo Frames

Each of our girls received one of these frames with the family photos included.

Our family tradition includes opening a new set of PJs on Christmas Eve. Last year, we bought them from Bedhead Pajamas. This year, we supported a few companies. My husband’s PJs came from The Cat’s Pajamas, which makes its PJs in the San Francisco Bay area. For our girls, we bought matching PJ sets from City Threads.

For Ella, I found a beautiful dress from Kid’s Dream, and a cute sweater to go over it from Sweet Kids, Inc.which she wore to church, and will have for upcoming special occasions.

We also gifted some Tinkertoys and Crayola gift sets, both of which were made in the USA.

We were excited when one of our family members gifted us Made in the USA socks from Costco–it’s fun and rewarding when people get excited about gifting USA made, too.

We’ve done a lot in the last few years to simplify our Christmas celebration by focusing more on time and experiences, and less on gifts. We are proud to support good wage jobs and entrepreneurship through the gifts we do give.
