USA Made Green Products
Red White Blue and Green
Two of my most important goals include supporting our economy by buying USA made products when there is one available, and protecting our environment buy buying products that are Eco-friendy. When I can accomplish both of these goals simultaneously, I like it even better. This lens focuses on products that meet both of these requirements. I hope you will join me in supporting these companies. Without our continued support it will become even harder to find products that fit this market.

They come in a variety of sizes and colors and contain a pocket in back which can hold accessories that they sell separately. They are available in ruled, blank, grid and calendar formats. These notebooks can be purchased either with a hard cover or a flexi cover. These are beautiful notebooks and I love the vivid colors available.
