You can't help but feel the electric excitement that is not only engulfing America but the world too! Today will be one of those days which we will all remember. Today, the 44th President of America is to be sworn in. That in itself is important. However, more importantly, this is the first time that a black American has had the opportunity to enter the White House. I remember, not too long ago, all the demonstrations we followed on the news about the troubles in America. To think that a few years down the road the picture has changed. There will be many who are still alive and remember the dark days. Today, there is enlightenment for all of us, not just America! A new hope and a new adventure.
There will be many problems inherited and many more to solve but with resolution, integrity and a new hope these will be overcome in one way or another.
I tried to see if any of a team I am passionate about had any items to commemorate this special event and found the follow:
Barack Obama Inaugural Window Cling Suncatcher With Stained Glass effects
'The audacity of hope!
I made this window cling in honor of our newly elected president,' says the creator,
No disrespect! However, you have to bring in the humour too, don't you?
Obama '08 - Lipstick on a Pig with Freebie
'Make a political statement or if you wish, remove the lipstick. Great fun and great for conversation,' says
Patriotic Earrings
'These fun fun fun Patriotic Earrings are perfect for those who love America!' quotes Katz Kreations
This selection is from a team on Etsy called Boomers and Beyond Etsy Street Team or the BBEST for short! Just place BBEST team in your search and you will find the most amazing items from very talented folk!
