The Wyre'd Sisters LLC is comprised of a husband and wife team and thier two sisters. Each bring a unique personality and complimentary talents to the company. Sandie and her husband Mark invented and displayed the first version of the WyreTree at the 2008 family Christmas gathering.
When Shari, Sandie's sister saw the WyreTree she was inspired and initiated the idea to join forces with Sandie and Mark to take the product to market. As excitement grew, it was clear that to be complete the team needed the third sister Dottie.

WyreTreeHi, I'm the WyreTree! I'm here for you because of people who believe in me — and in each other. Sandie and Mark are my "birth parents," but it took all four of my relatives (Shari, Dottie, Sandie and Mark) to give me life.You could say I have many personalities. It's because I have a different look for nearly every holiday or special occasion. I am breathtaking in all red for Valentine’s Day. All green on St. Patrick’s Day shows my Irish side. For Spring Celebrations, pastel colors like pink, soft blue, mint green, and daisy yellow look great adorned from each of my rings. During the patriotic days of summer, I hang red, white and blue ornaments. And of course, Christmas brings a vast array of colors! I proudly wear the title “Made with Pride in the USA.” Being made in America shows how much my parents believe in the people who work here, live here and love America. The old saying “You get what you pay for” definitely describes who I truly am. I’m sure I could have been made cheaper somewhere else, but my parents know cheaper isn’t always better. With me, you have the assurance that I am a quality, American-Made product! I have so much joy to offer you. I have a new and innovative look. I am lead and toxic free. I am safe and environmentally friendly. I will not catch on fire and I can fit under your bed until the next time I am displayed. I am small enough to fit in the tiniest high-rise apartment, but I am large enough to accommodate any oversized space. Make me a special part of your décor and I know you will love me!  I am the WyreTree proud and free, Made in America for you and me! |
