They’re temporary and they appear at the drop of a hat, ready
for business before you even knew they were moving in, yet pop-up
Christmas shops are an iconic fixture of the holiday season. The
shops that appear in empty storefronts or on street corners are part
of the national culture, with handcrafted ornaments and decorations
to make your house look less like a Grinch and more like you lived on
the North Pole.
But now, pop-up Christmas shops are that and
much more. The “pop-up shop” model now applies to technology,
gift and clothing stores that are setting up an extra storefront for
the busiest shopping time of the year. Once exclusively online stores
are taking their products to your neighborhood, attempting to make
some extra money and try out the “brick and mortar” business
model of setting up an actual storefront.
These pop-up
Christmas shops are only around for a period of 2 months or so, and
then they’re on their way out after a clearance sale encouraging
you to stock up on your Christmas collection and gifts for next year.
Both independent crafters and major chain stores participate in the
trend, bringing quite a selection of holiday stores for your shopping
pleasure.
Check out one great pop-up this year is The Monrovia French Market
Presents Winter Wonderland Holiday Show is DECEMBER 6th from 9am –
2pm and is located @ St. Lukes of Monrovia 122 S. California Ave
cross street Foothill, Monrovia, CA 91016
This wonderful shopping day out will feature plenty to browse and
will be a great place to buy gifts for everyone on your list. Expect
to find a huge variety of handmade and vintage items from paper-cuts
to ironwork and vintage jewelery to soaps. Entry to the event is free
and there is car parking nearby
