Byers' Choice

Just a bit up the road from me 
is a Made in America 
success story:  Byers' Choice


Byers' Choice was started by Jane Byers - 
with roots in the 1960s 
of her first designs of Christmas Carolers.


Soon orders began to come in 
as others wanted Carolers of their own. 
And a business was born.


Today, you can visit their factory,
and watch the artists at work. 


You can also walk through villages 
of eternal caroling!


There are hundreds of their Carolers on display.


All the photos in this set 
have something in common.
Did you notice what it is?

 

Hopefully,
my friends from 
noticed!

I've always loved these figures with their "O" mouths!

This little museum has a lovely display, film to give background, and the nicest of people. We enjoyed the visit in the fall, anticipation Christmas and got lots of great gifts for people. In the Spring, you will love wandering through the lovely gardens with their sculptures.
