Just when saddened shoppers of art festivals thought they couldn’t buy from their favorite artists due to the Pandemic, the Artful Elves decided to save Christmas! Customers will now get the opportunity to buy from the creative artists and vendors in this new, state-of-the-art virtual setting – on their computers in the comfort and safety of their own cozy couch! The Artful Elves have put together an incredible line-up of talented artists and crafters featuring jewelers, painters, mixed media artisans, woodworkers, glass designers, folk artists, photographers, metalsmiths and so much more. Shoppers can even find fun food items and edible treats from members of Georgia Grown. Vendors have been working diligently to create one-of-a-kind goodies sure to make the holiday season magical for all, and they urge their customers to get their Christmas lists ready now. The photos displayed here are just a sampling of what is in store!
