America is turning 250! Do you remember celebrating America's 200th birthday? I do! It was the summer of 1976. There were parades, the flags on every porch, and the feeling that the whole country was celebrating together. Those were the days! I was a teenager then, wide‑eyed and taking it all in, not realizing how rare it was to feel that kind of shared pride. This list is my way of honoring that spirit again. It’s a mix of the old and the new, where you'll find my favorite vintage pieces that echo the Bicentennial days I remember, and modern items that carry our story forward. You may find a walk down memory lane in some of the items listed, and a renewed patriotic pride in our wonderful country. Won't you join me in celebrating America's 250th?
