(53,373 posts)6. I know that is terrible. I used to make crafts and go to shows to sell. The supple store I went to had Christmas stuff
out in October. Crafters needed the extra time to make the crafts. I made teddy bears and would display them at my October, Nov and December shows. I never bought from the big box stores, Mine were from craft retail stores. I here you with the music, displays and wreaths, etc. Good post, WmChris.
