See What Our Customers Have To Say
It’s not the profit we’re concerned about, it’s what it does and how people react to it. The community has the desire to want to collect the ornament each year.
The Beacon team is professional and accommodating, they work until the ornament is exactly as we envision.
Beacon’s ornaments have always been a step above the rest and we let customers know about their quality and that they are made from the same company who manufacturers the White House Historical Association’s ornaments.

Our annual ornament has turned into a goldmine. We do not market them as Christmas Ornaments, but as a remembrance keepsake of their visit.
