The Shabby Chic Market invites over 100 local vendors from all over the Tampa Bay area to sell guests their handmade goods. The Holiday Edition of the Shabby Chic Market will be filled with unique one of a kind gifts for the family members that made the nice list. Also included in the market will be décor featuring country Christmas, glitz and glam Shabby Chic items, original art, painted furniture, antique and vintage items, pallet art and signs, boutique clothing and so much more!

These make for great personalized gifts! Make a monogram poster for the preppy girl on your list!

For the first time ever, Green Thumb Creations will be offering a succulent creation station! Guests will be able to choose and customize a pot for the succulent of their choice to live in! Perfect for the people on your list that like plants (instead of pets) in their homes!
