Contestant's Case to Win

We make beautiful wood jars with many uses to give as gifts. Our wood jars make a great wedding gift, birthday gift, Christmas gift, etc... Jars can be used as a money jar, cookie jar, snack jar, home decor, etc... We use many types of wood. Black walnut, Sycamore, Cherry, Wild Cherry, Black Cherry, Apple, Peach, and many more.

After the passing of my father a year ago, we began making cremation urns for people and pets too. More and more people are choosing cremation rather than traditional burial because it is less expensive. And our customers love the idea of a CUSTOM MADE one-of-a-kind wooden urn for their family member or pet.

I think we should win this contest under the category - MOST INNOVATIVE because WE are INNOVATIVE! We offer a VERY UNIQUE product. Our wood jars and cremation urns are ONE-OF-A-KINDS. We are saving TREES from being burned for firewood.
And we sure could use the publicity to get the word out about our beautiful cremation urns and wood jars!

WE HOPE YOU WILL VOTE for us!
Thank you,

P.S. We just built a NEW 24 foot square Workshop and we LOVE it! We have several wood lathes and enjoy making these one of a kind wood jars and urns.
