holiday shoppe

With December right around the corner, I have gifting on the brain. Below is  list of great holiday markets and fairs, the perfect place to find a one-of-a-kind gift for this holiday season and also ideas to last all year long. Fairs are not only great for finding gifts but the food and music are sure to bring everyone a touch of holiday cheer.
