The Tip is 'Keep eyes open' After reading an article about items made in America I thought about how many times I make purchases without thinking. I'm usually focused on budget and needs. Prior to reading this article on made in the USA products, I rarely thought about the importance of buying made in USA products. This helps create jobs in our country. Now I keep my eyes open and I am surprised how easy it is to find American products. It only takes a few seconds to look. Now I make a point when I am shopping to search for made in America brands. By doing so, I'm able to identify more and more what products are made in America. Even with my eyes open to made in USA I can get discouraged. Sometimes store clerks don't know the country of origin which can be frustrating. If this happens use your eyes to find the origin information yourself. Look at the labels and when you find a Made in USA product tell the clerk so the next time they are asked they will know. Also, when the label is not easily seen I use the other made in America buying tips to help me find made in USA. If the store doesn't carry what you are looking for, use Made in America Secrets to find it and tell the manager about your experience at their store. When enough people are asking for made in the USA products, more stores will begin to carry products that are made here. This technique does work. I also pick and choose the stores I visit. I do this because I have found that some stores are made in America friendly while others are not. Keep your eyes open for the made in USA label and pretty soon you will be able to identify which products are made in the USA.

Great care is used in the production of my cremation urns with attention to detail as my priority. Each urn is hand made, one at a time. I use the finest grades of hardwood available and I provide quality cremation urns to the public at a fair price. These cremation urns are not cheap stained woods. They are made from exotic or domestic, top quality, hardwoods. My large cremation urns are 250 cubic inches in size. All of my urns receive at least 8 coats of polyurethane protective coating in order to properly seal and protect the wood. The polyurethane also provides a beautiful luster that really brings out the natural grain. Polyurethane is UV resistant as well as resistant to soap and most cleansers. The lids on the lathe turned cremation urns are threaded for easy opening and closing, making the urns spill-proof. The rectangular cremation urns have a plate on the bottom held securely with screws. There is felt on the bottom of the urns to protect surfaces from scratching. I thoroughly inspect every cremation urn before it is sold. You will not find a better quality cremation urn for these prices. Cremation urns made from stamped steel, porcelain, or imported woods from China, do not compare to the quality of the hardwoods that I use in my products. I also make custom cremation urns. If you want to design your own cremation urn, select a basic shape (round or lathe turned), and type of wood. This allows you to build to order your cremation urn. The box shaped cremation urns can also be custom made to size. Email me with your design and wood types and I will send you a quote. There is no extra charge for custom made cremation urns. If you want a custom designed cremation urn, you can go to my wood source and choose from many different types of woods. All you have to do is let me know which wood you decide upon, I will order the wood and build your cremation urn. The web site is www.woodworkerssource.com |
