Washington DC Holiday Market

On Saturday night I went shopping downtown with my mom and as we were walking to dinner, we passed through a bunch of tents called the Holiday Market. It was a really nice set up with tents on both sides all lit up with white lights.   There were tons of different things sold such as really interesting jewelry, paintings, and scarves.

 There was one tent with all different kinds of jewelry made out of nails, keys, bolts, and other metal tools. It was really cool to see a key shaped into a ring, or nails and bolts welded together to make a bracelet. We got a bracelet for my cousin for graduation this spring. 



 Another tent had all this really interesting jewelry with unique cutouts and shapes. My mom got a necklace there for my aunt as a holiday present. 

I thought it was really cool to have a bunch of small businesses coming together to make this holiday market. It's completely unexpected, and there was some really nice stuff there. It had a great holiday spirit to the whole set up and it just goes to show you that life is full of surprises.
