10 - MARTHA STEWART AMERICAN MADE 2013 AUDIENCE CHOICE AWARDS NOMINEE!

Feels like awards nomination season lately. First Red Tricycle, and now Martha Stewart American Made. As much as I loved being nominated by style blog Red Tricycle, I must say I am even more eager about being nominated for this particular award. The concept and idea is unique and I think it sends a wonderful message about products made in the USA. It takes a special kind of dedication and ingenuity to have products made in the USA. The costs are usually higher but I believe there are greater pay-offs.

Taken from the website, here is a description of the awards.

"American Made spotlights the maker, supports the local, and celebrates the handmade. It’s a movement made up of people and communities who have turned their passion for quality craftsmanship and well-designed goods into a way of life. 

But this movement isn’t about a single event. We believe we are in the midst of a shift in our culture where creative entrepreneurs are defining a new American economy. From Detroit to Des Moines, Spokane to St. Louis, people are choosing Main Street over mini-malls—supporting the local and the handmade. Our country’s makers are sparking this change by taking a leap, banking on their creativity and craftsmanship, and living their version of the American Dream.

The American Made Awards honor makers from across the country for innovation and excellence in their field. From reprising a lost art form and impacting a community to pioneering an industry, each maker is honored for their role in pushing the American Made movement forward."
