In 2026, Route 66 celebrates 100 years of American history, adventure, and the open road. Established in 1926, the legendary highway stretched from Chicago to Santa Monica, connecting small towns, roadside attractions, diners, motels, and generations of travelers along the way.
Known as the “Mother Road,” Route 66 became more than a highway—it became a symbol of road trips, freedom, discovery, and classic Americana.
Our Route 66 Collection celebrates 100 years of the Mother Road with handcrafted gifts and keepsakes inspired by the signs, scenery, nostalgia, and spirit of America’s most famous highway.
