Sandra Magsamen is known for her whimsical designs and in her typical inspirational style she has created the American Summer line in a full Americana theme. Perfect for your upcoming Fourth of July festivities, you can celebrate our nation with these fun yet super affordable gifts.
This line features frames, mugs, door hangers, wine glasses and plaques each with its own unique message. How great would they be to decorate your house or to bring to the host of your Independence Day celebration?
I received a mug, plaque and picture frame to see the quality of the line and was impressed as always, especially given the low prices. While I liked all the pieces, my favorite was the picture frame and I look forward to inserting a memory from this year’s 4th of July to treasure always. It will look perfect in our blue and red guest bedroom.
The mug has a nice weight to it and I really love the message and bright colors! My favorite part about this line is that while it is a 4th of July focus, the theme allows them to be enjoyed year round.
Buy it: The Sandra Magsamen American Summer line is available exclusively at Wal-mart stores. Products range in price from only $5 to $10!
