Shopping for the Holidays? Indie craft shows can help!

Trying to figure out what you thought of getting your loved ones for Christmas 6 months ago can be tough. You may have been shopping around one sunny Spring afternoon when you spotted the perfect gift for Sharon and made a mental note to buy her this perfect gift for Christmas. And now you can’t remember what it was… Local craft shows are the best way to jog your memory and if you still can’t remember what it was you wanted to get Sharon, then you’ll surely find her something just as great, if not better!

Luckily for everyone several craft shows are popping up here and there in the next few weeks, so there will be plenty of opportunities for memory jogging and just plain awesome-gift-shopping.

AND… Brought to you by Got Craft?, you could win a $10 gift certificate from The Barefoot Contessa! All you have to do is subscribe to String Magazine. If you’re already subscribed then sit back, relax, and cross those fingers. Contest closes December 3rd. Details of the Got Craft? event are below:
