Vendors from across the United States apply months in advance for a spot at Fayetteville, NC’s, Junior League’s Holly Day Fair, taking place at Fayetteville’s Crown Expo Center, Nov. 7 - 10, 2013. The competition is fierce - planners select just 200 artisans to offer their hand-made, unique products to Holly Day Fair shoppers. This year, shoppers will find holiday decorations, handmade crafts, stylish jewelry and clothes, children’s toys, specialty food items and more.

“For the past 46 years, we’ve provided shoppers with an ideal holiday shopping experience, and this year won’t be any different,” says Anna Haley, 2013 Holly Day Fair Chair. “We’ve hand-selected each and every vendor to make sure we have gifts for everyone on your holiday list. And these aren’t gifts you’re likely to find in area stores. Our vendors come from every corner of the United States, and each have unique products to offer.”
