BUY
Etsy New York’s 8th Annual Holiday Handmade Cavalcade
Dec. 5 from 10 a.m. to 8 p.m.
Dec. 6 from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.
Before you ask, a “cavalcade” is a procession of riders or carriages moving in the same direction or a series of related things. Seems a bit outdated, but I’m going with the latter definition, regardless. Buy your holiday gifts, this has your mom’s or even an alternative step father’s name written all over it.
