Day 6 of USA in a day

Disclosure: this is a non sponsored, non compensated post. It is not a review either. Day #6 Intro: I am on a hunt for things in my home that are made in the USA.

Day #1 of USA in a Day.

I am going on a non sponsored, non compensated hunting trip. This hunting trip is for things in my house made in The United States of America. It can be a Tchotchke, kitchen ware, clothing, shoes, or any other item I spot during the day.  Day #1 and item #1 This is a plastic Valentine heart decoration. I am sad to say the company is out if business now. The second item I spotted was this tin of tea we received as a gift. The tea was delicious and I'll be saving this tin for another use. What can you find in your house that is marked "Made in USA"?
