The past few nights on the TV news there have been a series of reports called Made in America. A major point of these reports is that if we spent just a part of what we spend on gifts this year on goods made in America, we would create thousands of jobs in America.

This got me to thinking about my brother and his family business. They sell made in America art online and works by a large number of artists. The business is Best American Arts and the website is http://www.bestamericanarts.com/. Items include jewelry, various items of home decor, ceramics, fiber,glass, leather, metal, and wood. All of these are handcrafted in America. And shipping is free within the United States.

So if you think you might be interested in giving some American art this year, check out http://www.bestamericanarts.com/. And I’ve saved even more good news for last. Because his brother Jack sent you, there is a discount. Just use the code JackReidy at checkout and the discount will be applied. (No spaces in the discount code.)

Let’s buy at least 1 American gift this year. The recepient will love the quality of the artwork and the United States economy will benefit. Support American art and this family business.
