Local pop-up markets bring together talent and unique, one-of-a-kind products this holiday season By Jessika Cesilia Perez
For holiday and window shoppers alike, West Michigan has more than a few craft fairs to look through, even a permanent pop-up shop. For those avoiding excessive spending — the only money you are obligated to drop is an entry fee which is usually less than $10 per person. After that, all other purchases are optional so you can stroll through the fair and take your time deciding whether you really want that novelty art. (You do.) Here is a list of the pop-up markets to consider this winter around the Lakeshore:
NOVEMBER POP-UP MARKETS Nov. 11 16th Annual Holiday Craft & Artisan Market Grand Haven Central Park Place, 9 a.m. - 3 p.m. “Shop 55+ vendors who are ready to share their passions with you,” says Lyndsey Nauta. “From beautiful carved wood bowls, candles, wreaths, jewelry, spices, frozen candy, baked treats, ornaments, coasters, herbal teas, body lotions and soaps, women’s clothes, doll clothes, pet bandanas and treats, wooden signs, jewelry containers, pottery, makeup, cleaning products, nail accessories, Tupperware, CBD oils, games, and puzzles, and SO MUCH MORE.” More info on facebook.com
