January’s Atlanta Market is always anticipated to be a busy time for Christmas shopping, and there was no deviation from that trend this Market. Whether it was reordering customer favorites or finding new best sellers.

TRIM THE TREE

Everyone loves ornaments and around The Link we’ve got plenty to choose from.

Our friends at Old World Christmas had some delicious top sellers including Pickle, Sweet Pickle, Corn Dog, Jar of Peanut Butter, and Ranch Dressing.

Beacon Design’s namedrop selection was attractive to buyers, with over 100 different designs to choose from, each beautifully handcrafted in the United States by a team of talented artisans. A must-have for any tourist destination.

Over at Magnolia Lane, buyers stocked up on ornaments around major life events like, Mr. & Mrs. and Baby’s 1st. And we can’t forget about the collegiate series, with University of Georgia finding two ornaments in their top 10 sold, go Dawgs!
