Among the big questions that we are still receiving is whether or not Made From RI still has "Those 2020 graduation ornaments". We receive a lot of questions (and will be doing a regular FAQ, Frequently Asked Questions session in this blog), and the answer to this one is a resounding, "YES!" Moreover, we plan to have them throughout the remainder of 2020.

We understand the question. 2020 has been a most unusual year. We cannot fathom what it is like to graduate from an institution of higher learning, completing a life quest, under these conditions. Moreover, we are parents, so we also consider how one might express their pride over these events in 2020. This is part of the service that we offer; making certain that there are appropriate items to express emotions in good times and difficult times. 

So the simple answer is that Made From RI does have the 2020 Graduation Commemorative Keepsake Ornament, "Standing Alone Together" available to ship and we intend to have it in stock from now (Summer) until the Holiday Season 2020.

As an aside, this ornament accompanies other Commemorative ornaments that can be found at Made From RI here: https://madefromri.com/commemorative/

One of the things we love about Rhode Island is how imagination and history combine in tough times to focus on our youngsters.
