Wabash, Ind. – Visit Wabash County is excited to announce that The Wood Shed is the designer for the exclusive 2017 Christmas ornament, and they are now available for purchase. Fifth in a series, the Visit Wabash County Ornament’s design is inspired by the pride we have in calling Wabash County our home.
After 39 years of business in Wabash, Ron and Kris Moore have been carving out a niche that showcases their artistic talents in the woodworking business. Each 2017 ornament was individually cut and handcrafted out of old barn wood located in Wabash County and was whitewashed to showcase an antique look. “What better way to show pride in our county then by marking it on the cutout of Indiana,” said Jennifer Long-Dillon, Tourism Manager of Visit Wabash County, “We are so excited to share the creative talent of the Moore’s work with you.”
We are also eager to announce that different from year’s past, we will have a total of 150 ornaments available for purchase. Long-Dillon stated, “Along with the Visit Wabash County Board of Directors, we decided that in order to keep up with demand but still keep the exclusivity of the ornament, we will now offer a total of 150 ornaments for purchase as opposed to 100. I am thrilled that our ornament program has become so special and a ‘must have’ for many Wabash County residents. Each ornament was specially handcrafted and is numbered and signed.”
The 2017 ornament is now available for purchase for $17 each. Please call the Visit Wabash County Welcome Center at 260.563.7171 or stop by 221 S. Miami St. Wabash, IN to purchase yours today! Ornaments may be picked up at time of purchase and payment is due upon receipt.
