ABOUT 'NEATH THE WREATH

"Our market features the best in unique holiday and home décor, ladies clothing, accessories, gifts, jewelry, children’s items, gourmet food, and more. We strive to have something for everyone." (from the Jr. League of Collin County website)

Sisters, friends, co-workers and teachers to name a few. Shop with us and find something special for someone special that will arrive at your door, ready to go! No fuss, just fun.

We are bringing back old favorite patterns in addition to many of the patterns we introduced in September on all the notepads, notebooks, pens and pouches your heart could desire. Plus SO MANY easy gift ideas for stress-free gifting. Come shop with us, we'll do the work and you can take all the credit.

We will be taking orders for personalized items at the show that will arrive to your door within a few weeks. Personalization will be FREE on all items and shipping with be too! We'll also be giving away a $250 gift card during the market and you'll have opportunities to enter in-person and on Instagram.

Since our last time at 'Neath the Wreath we have been working hard behind the scenes to give our booth a big, beautiful upgrade which will provide a smoother, easier and ultimately more enjoyable shopping experience with us. We can't wait to show you!

TICKETS

You must purchase a ticket to enter. Remember, this is a fundraiser that helps support our local Collin County community so, it's worth it! We recommend purchasing tickets in advance, especially for Ladies Night Out which typically sells out pretty quick. Get all the ticket details here.

PARKING

Know before you go that it will be busy and you should bring an extra dose of patience with you along with a few bucks for parking. Parking is available in the hotel parking garage or across the street on weekend days. There are usually Jr. League ladies outside helping direct traffic. They're really nice, ask them any questions you may have and tell them they're doing a great job!

INSIDER TIPS

The fun part! We asked some of the ladies that we see at 'Neath the Wreath every year to share their experience and insider shopping tips. Here's what they had to say...

"We do a 'girls day-out' every year. It's always so much fun. Myself, mom, mother-in-law, sister and niece all get up on Saturday, grab coffee and walk around for hours. We snack and shop, it's great." -Jenny

"Try to shop on the first day and get there when it opens!" -Ashley

"'Neath the Wreath is the best place to discover small businesses in our area!" -Megan

"I always walk and look at everything and then circle back to the shops I want to purchase from." -Eliza

"We learned the first time we went that it's really busy the first few days. It was overwhelming for us and we didn't end up buying anything. The next year we went on Sunday (the last day) and it was so calm. Totally different experience." -Sam

From our perspective and past experience, that last one is so true.

Thursday and Friday are the busiest days! Which can be really fun and exciting. Followed by Saturday and then Sunday is truly the calmest shopping experience. Depends on how you like to shop and what you're looking to get from your experience at 'Neath the Wreath. Some say that you miss out on things if you don't go on the first few days but in the Patterned booth you'll find all the same great things no matter which day you come see us.

We hope you'll join us at our ONLY in-person shopping event this year, stock up on the perfect gifts for teachers, co-workers and girlfriends... or, your secret is safe with us if you find something new just for you! 

PS. SPECIAL SHOUT OUTS TO...
