Holiday Markets!

The question we've heard more than anything since the Horseshoe Craft and Flea Market is "when is the next Horseshoe Market?" and "are you doing a holiday market?" We love these questions since it means you all want more!! We will be giving you more Horseshoe Markets starting in the Spring (no holiday market this year), but we wanted to make sure to spread the word about all of the fantastic holiday craft markets happening in the area. Yay for handmade art, crafts and for local markets!

    I want to go to all of them!! I'm so happy to be here in CO where we have handmade craft events, I've lived in too many places that don't have any kind of indie scene to speak of, and it's wonderful to have lots to choose from!
