AbbeyPress-TeacherMugAbbey Press applauds the talents of hard-working people, including military personnel, teachers, nurses and hairstylists, with its “Helping Hands, Grateful Hearts” collection. The new products—plaques, totes and more—feature designs and sentiments aimed at celebrating those who serve their communities.

Produced in Abbey Press’ southern Indiana facility using all U.S.-made materials, the line includes 5-by-7-inch plaques ($14), mini desktop plaques ($8), coordinating tote bags ($18) and coffee mugs ($11). The company plans to add a magnet set and tumblers to the collection in July.

Key Accounts Manager Cathy Altman sees these gifts as an opportunity to thank the various individuals who shape society.

“So often, the people who make our everyday lives better simply by doing their jobs are overlooked,” Altman said. “This collection of gifts offers simple, yet meaningful, ways to let them know their work is not forgotten, that it’s appreciated.”

The introduction coincides with upcoming appreciation events such as Hairstylist Appreciation Day on April 30 or the month of May, which is designated for honoring nurses, teachers and members of the military.

The line was well-received at January’s Atlanta gift show where buyers were given a sneak peek of the collection. Altman reported that several of her customers have begun selling items from the line and are already seeing positive results.
