Crafts and Collectible Show at Colony Square Mall.
With only 12 days left until Christmas many are scrambling for the perfect gift.
The crafts and collectible show at the Colony Square Mall offers table after table of one-of-a-kind items. Vendors say the crowd has picked up with the holiday season and many are receiving custom orders for presents.
"I have a lot of people that special order, I have a lot of repeat business, a lot of people come back," says Marty Madinger with Blankets and Baskets.
This is the third year Madinger has showed off her home-made memory buckets. They act as time capsules to hold onto important memories. She says she can custom make a bucket for any person and occasion. She says her blankets and buckets sell very well which helps her income in these tough times.
"This is actually my out from my job. I do home health care, that is my main profession, I help take care of handicap people, this kind of help supplements me on top of that and it is also kind of relaxing for me," tells Madinger.
Madinger says the Ohio State and Disney Buckets are the most popular this season. To order a Memory Bucket call (740) 454-2178.
