Randolph Roundup: Holidays The Vintage Way
The first Holiday Market in November was sparkling and fun and kicked off the season with a decisive Thanksgiving twist! And we are filled with thankfulness that after 15 years our Holiday Markets are a beloved Chicago — and Midwestern — tradition!!! We saw super duper creative displays and stylish rosy cheeked shoppers, partaking of an orgy of sweets and warming with whiskey tastings 😉 Parents pulled off snow suits and lost mittens piled up, the hunt was aggressive with many shopping bags and return trips to the parking lot to park packages and refill. Enjoy this Randolph ROUNDUP with instagram highlights and mark your calendars for Randolph Street’s Holiday Market part 2 Saturday/Sunday December 15 + 16 — we’ll be there with our jingle bells on!!
We love Instagram…
Thanks for sharing your RSM-found inspirations!!
