If you haven’t noticed all the signs along city streets, and ads in this very paper, it’s holiday craft fair season.
It really started last week in this area with a handful of shows, and moving forward over the next five weeks, there’s lots more in store.
You’ll find all sorts of one-of-a-kind creations, from jewelry and blankets to home decor, candles and soaps. And that’s just a few things that came to mind.
It’s a great way to kick start your holiday shopping, or find that perfect something for that person on your list who doesn’t want just another great internet deal.
We looked high and low to find any and all holiday craft fairs in the area, and feel we did a pretty darn good job. But that’s not to say there aren’t more – we just didn’t find anything about them.
So use this as your trusty guide to holiday craft fairs in Concord and Bow, and get to shopping.
