Make a new memory and cherish the old.
At TRC Designs, we believe that Christmas is
about making memories. Our mission is to
deliver unique, high-quality, made-in-USA
products centered around precious Christmas
memories. Each cottage is hand-assembled
start to finish in central Virginia, and is guar-
anteed to excite and fascinate your family.
We are honored and proud to be living the
American Dream. Our company has grown
from a beloved pastime housed in a garage
into a thriving business.
Glenn Crider began handcrafting nutcrackers
and wooden toys almost 40 years ago as a
hobby, and counted himself lucky to break
even at the craft shows he visited.
But when he lost his job after the 2008 reces-
sion, this hobby became the only option to
sustain him and his family. Citing his mantra
“failure is not an option,” Glenn experiment-
ed with different types of products for the

first few years—from engraved wine glasses
to small ornaments.
In 2010, he was struck with an idea that
would prove his most incredible yet. The first
five Ginger Cottages were designed, and ex-
ceeded sales expectations four times over. In
the years since, we have continued to grow
exponentially, creating new Christmas memo-
ries with the people we’ve met along the
way.
Each of our products is made with meticulous
care by the hands of our assemblers, or
“elves,” as we like to call them. We celebrate
roles and famous figures both German and
American, and hide little pieces of history and
enchanting fairy tales in each product.
We hope that our products will fill you with
warmth from good times, past and present.
Merry Christmas!

 Gingerman’s Christmas Adventure
By Glenn A. Crider and Jamie Cosley

Our story finds our little hero in Santa’s sleigh on the

way to the home of a good little girl or boy. But
something goes awry, and Gingerman ends up in a snow-
bank instead! How will he make it in time for Christmas
morning?
Written by Glenn Crider, designer of Ginger Cottages,
and NutcrackersUSA, with illustrations by Jamie Cosley.
Cosley has worked with names like Lucasfilm Ltd.
(creators of Star Wars), The Topps Trading Cards Compa-
ny, and Walt Disney Parks and Resorts.
Glenn and Jamie, as you might expect, have hidden
dozens of secrets in the book that are sure to entertain
children of all ages.
