This is the big sign announcing the market. I mean, it's not like you could MISS the market, but I did like the giant cookies standing on the sides.
These are the roofs of some of the stalls in a TINY section of the market. This thing was huge I'm telling you!
We were right by a huge cathedral. I wish I would've snooped around it a little more and gotten some better pictures but I was distracted by all of the shiny Christmas things.
Here are a couple more with various stalls and people milling about.
Now for some of the goodies INSIDE the stalls!
Growing up we always had an awesome Christmas village. I don't have anything here, but I think I'm going to need to start my own small collection. It doesn't feel like Christmas without. There were some little cheapie pieces and also some pieces that were up into the several hundred euro range. I was drooling, but decided maybe I shouldn't blow our entire mortgage payment on a tiny house that you can't even live in!
There were gobs of ornament stalls. I liked this one because they had them all out in little bowls and they looked so pretty!
The candy stalls smelled SO good. I just wanted to hang a piece of cotton candy from my nose and smell it the rest of the day.
Martijn thinks I took this picture to torment him (he has this THING about roosters), but I thought the colors were fantastic.
I thought this little hedgehog was cool. His spikes are just little branches that have been cut off at an angle. Very clever.
This doily stand was amazing. They had these teeny little lace parasols and I was so tempted to buy one for one of my sock monkeys! I kept my wallet in my pocket though and continued on...
I really should've bought this! I could've used the witch and the cat in some sort of project I'm sure. It totally cracked me up. If I see one next year I'm snapping it up.
This wasn't actually in the market, but in a shop window nearby. I want a Christmas tree full of tiny knit sweaters, don't you?
Visit Unknown Mami for more Sundays in My City (or someone else's as the case may be).
