With patriotism flying high following the November election, the presidential inauguration this month and the upcoming spring holidays, Blossom Bucket introduces in February three resin patriotic-themed figurines from artist Barbara Lloyd.

Combining classic Americana and spring motifs, the Crow on Flag Block could stand alone as a decoration or fit into a collection. The flag reads “USA.” It stands 3 inches high and retails for $5.99.

 

The USA Sheep With Crows & Flag is 4 inches high and retails for $6.99. “USA” is printed in black across the sheep.

God Bless stands at 3 inches and retails for $3.99. The words “God Bless” are spelled out below a small American flag.

Sales of patriotic-themed products have started earlier than normal because of the election and upcoming inauguration.

“We generally sell Americana-themed items yearly especially in the summer,” said Natalie Hammer, vice president of sales and marketing for Blossom Bucket. “God Bless America is a theme that is popular year after year, and this year will be no different.

This item will begin shipping in February so the product is in stores in time for the summer holidays.
