I always feel like an old lady when I say this, but craft shows are one of my favorite things. It’s all about shopping local (which is super important) and supporting your community while finding some pretty rad handmade things that you’ll never see in a big box store.

To me, the craft and artisan shows are the absolute best around the holiday season. Honestly, I do a ton of my Christmas shopping at these shows…and maybe find one (or two or three) things for myself. Plus, I always go to these shows with my mom, so it’s quality bonding time for us that I cherish so much.

As you can see below, I’ve rounded up a handful of shows that I’ve come across on the internets, and I’ll definitely be attending most, if not all, of these. If your favorite show isn’t listed below, either leave me a comment or send me an email so that I can share it with all of you!
