McKinney, Texas -- Celebrate the final stretch of fall and get a head start on Christmas shopping at the November MillHouse Makers Market inside the historic McKinney Cotton Mill.

The indoor market brings together a wide variety of North Texas makers offering original art, handcrafted jewelry, home décor, accessories, specialty foods and gifts you will not find in a typical store. It is an opportunity to shop directly from the people who designed, made and prepared each item—and to find something personal for everyone on your list.

November is the perfect time to begin holiday shopping before the season becomes a full-contact sport. Browse at your own pace, meet the makers and enjoy the Cotton Mill’s historic industrial setting while discovering thoughtful gifts with real stories behind them. Start early, leaving time to enjoy the season.

Whether you are shopping for family, friends, teachers, hosts or yourself, the market offers plenty of possibilities. You may find a statement piece for the home, a small stocking stuffer, a favorite new treat or the gift for that person who is nearly impossible to shop for.

The entire market is indoors, so unpredictable fall weather will not interfere with the day. Bring a friend and enjoy a relaxed Saturday centered on creativity, community and shopping small.

The November Makers Market takes place Saturday, November 14, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the McKinney Cotton Mill, 610 Elm Street in McKinney. Enter through Parking Lot B. Admission is free, and the event is open to the public.
