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 Coquette Bath & Home Once upon a time, there was a store in Fort Worth, TX called KARMA. If you were a KARMA customer, many thanks. Opening that store (and running it from 2001 til 2007) was a dream come true. Unfortunately, the economy came crashing down and little sole proprietorships, like mine, didn't have much to fall back on. So the store had to close and I still miss it, and you, every single day.... ...but that was then. As they say 'when a door closes, a window opens'. KARMA sold many things, from wall art, statues, cool jewelry and so much more. But, to be honest, my products--candles, scenting oils, soap, lip balm and more--were just too popular. Even after the store closed, customers found me and I soon was pouring just as quickly as before. So, rather than shutting down production...I kept on going, and moved online. Jar Candles Picture Jar candles. Super scented, cause that's what you are buying candles for...to enhance your world. 11oz by volume. Brightly colored. Paraffin blend wax holds the maximum scent. The term 'triple scented' is meaningless (I've probably written a post on THAT somewhere) but if you want strong. Buy mine. Wax Melts, Nuggets? Picture Super scented wax in a no burn format. Absolutely great for offices or where you just can't burn. Or, maybe, you just don't want too! No soot. No fuss. Just wonderful scent. A few months later, in 2008, I learned about Etsy. I already had a website, but this was a larger pool of potential customers. Soon, I was shipping all over the US (international, too). Originally named Good Scents Bath Company? (GoodScents on Etsy), life was good. But, before too long, after musing a bit, I decided to make another change. In 2009, after a lot of thought, Good Scents Bath Compamy? became Coquette Bath & Home?. The name pays a bit of homage to my French heritage, but also really identifies my products and my vision. After all, many products are 'good scents' but not all of them are fun, flirty and fabulous! With the addition of 'bath & home' it was clear that I intended to keep on with the candles that started it all, but was also going to keep creating new pampering goodies for personal care. The shop on Etsy was closed down (because 'back then' Etsy did not permit name changes on shops...thought they do now) and a new shop: CoquetteBath opened. And life, though busy, was once again very very good. And now, we're here. I get scolded by family for constantly changing my website, but as time moves on, my vision sharpens. I hope you find this new site even easier to shop. I welcome your comments. Check out the FAQ page to leave me a note. Thanks! About me Entrepreneur. Creative. Business person.
