The Tip is 'Before You Buy' Made in America Secrets tries to send you to internet stores that sell the Made In USA products you searched for. We try to link you directly to only Made In USA products, however sometimes this does not happen. When you click our banner / link ads the store we link you to may show you products that are imported alongside those that are Made In USA. We all know most retailers sell products that are made and come from all over the world including the USA. Therefore, our tip is look at the details before you buy the product. This is true for both brick and mortar stores and internet retailers. Any Made in America store that represents selling only Made in USA products can be believed but check them anyway. They will appreciate your help. Here is a great example of a very reputable Made in America Store. Our site is similar to a few others that I call "Indexers". These sites offer lists like an index. These indexes relate companies to the products they sell. There are a few, like this site, that provide an index of Made in America companies and their products. You can use the indexes (like I have done at times) to find a particular product and the companies that make it. Our site has many features like our buy tips that are unique and valuable. We add buying tips regularly so don't forget to check them out, as they will help you find and buy great Made In America products. Some of these sites are a good resource if you are looking for the manufacturer of a specific product. However you should first check their accuracy because some are not maintained as well as others. Some allow inaccurate and inappropriate ads, others like Made In America Secrets maintain the accuracy of their indexes and do not allow inappropriate advertisements. We continually try to improve our links and we solicit your help and ideas to make our site even better. You can contact us by email, mail, or phone and we will try our very best to respond promptly. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Emutile Since 2004, the mission of Emu Tile has been to produce beautiful, durable art tile by hand. This small but mighty studio has just two employees: about emu art tile Emily M. Ulm is the full-time tile designer and maker. She studied ceramics and sculpture at the University of Akron (BFA, Sculpture, 2003). After graduation, she toyed with the idea of going into art education, then surprised friends and family by announcing her intention to start an art tile company. As a career path, it appealed to her love of nature, passion for craft and interest in home improvement. When she married Darrell and changed her last name from Wilson to Ulm, her initials became E.M.U., which is how the business got the name Emu Tile. Her husband never doubted the company would be a success and became co-owner. Darrell Ulm helps out when he has time. He built and maintains the Emu Tile website using the open source content management system, Drupal. In addition, he has been known to photograph tiles, fix kilns, lift heavy things and clean the studio. Both creative and practical, he took classes in photography, filmmaking and painting as well as Computer Science in college. When Emily and Darrell are not working, they enjoy spending time outdoors, listening to old music, and hanging out with their delightfully cranky pet cat. |
