MOULTRIE — Mark your calendars now and make your list! The Calico Holiday Arts and Crafts Show will be held in Moultrie on Nov. 10 and 11. Enjoy early holiday shopping as you browse more than 400 booths filled with gifts for all occasions, as well as holiday and seasonal decorations.

This year promises many new crafts as well as favorites from past shows. Among some of the one-of-a-kind items will be beautiful handcrafted iron home and garden décor; whimsical Christmas decorations; architectural décor; and the ever popular seasonal decorations for outdoors.

For the father or husband on your shopping list, stop by the booth of Doug and Carolyn Bowie, who turn blocks of cocobolo wood, olive wood, pine and even Corian on a lathe into beautifully crafted pepper mills, pens and wine stoppers. If you are looking for a unique gift, consider one of Ginger Lawrence’s vintage lamps. Lawrence transforms coffee urns, teapots, cigar boxes and other items into functional yet decorative lamps. Dawn Newbern will return with her fairy tale castle filled with painted children’s furniture and accessories.

Gift items include interior and decorative items, holiday and gourmet foods, clothing, jewelry, toys, pottery, floral arrangements, painted glass, antiques and much more. A variety of entertainment for both the young and young at heart will include visits with Santa and clogging performers from across the Southeast. Visitors can also register to win a piece of handcrafted furniture donated by John Bruce.

Site of the show is Spence Field, home of the Sunbelt Ag Expo, located four miles southeast of Veterans Parkway on Highway 133 in Moultrie. Gates are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Saturday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Sunday.
