It's heading for a year around sales event This happens every year. The CRAFT STORES get the Christmas stuff out well before Labor Day so the crafters can start working on the items for craft fairs and gifts.

Yes the crafters will always be the first to see the holiday displays because of the lead time it takes to make many of their items. My local quilt shop has had Christmas fabric in for a couple of weeks now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah Bob #35998 Posted August 16, 2020 Share Posted August 16, 2020 Well, things bein what they are today, I can’t blame any retailers for doing whatever they think will keep them in business. So I’ll give em a pass for this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cholla Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 We already booked our room in Sedona for the Festival of Lights on December 12th. I'm looking forward to the Desert Botanical Gardens Holiday display. I imagine I'll go down and see the Prescott Courthouse lights a few times this year. I leave a decorated century plant blossom up year round decorated with Southwestern ornaments. This is the first Christmas I am looking forward to in decades.

They don't turn them on till December, yet you can see them all year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mile of Lights at Fain Park in Prescott Valley and the indoor Christmas display at Gateway Mall in Prescott. the mall display has an amazing display of model railroad stuff in operation. It alone is worth the trip down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Artificial tree, so I guess they do the same thing as the outdoor lights. Looked sad standing in a dark corner in July. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
