The heart-shaped background is decorated with two embossed polyresin angels holding a star. The flower beneath the angels is made of metal and the overhead sign is made of metal. The overhead metal sign has the word "Welcome" painted thereon and it is decorated with metal flowers. This decorative sign has two metal hangers for the purpose of hanging on a wall. The sample is returned as you requested.

The applicable subheading for the welcome sign decoration will be 3926.40.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTS), which provides for other articles of plastics and articles of other materials of headings 3901 to 3914: statuettes and other ornamental articles.
