ISHPEMING -- The National Guard Armory in Ishpeming was alive with holiday shoppers Saturday. It was the annual holiday craft show.

Twenty-six vendors filled the room from wall-to-wall with holiday gifts. They were selling a wide array of items like clothes, jewelry and even baked goods.

The show started on Friday with about 250 visitors.

Even more people perused the tables.

"Everybody that's come through has made comments that it's been a wonderful show; they liked the layout of the room, they've got plenty of room to walk around and shop, and they said the crafts are very good quality," said Liz Waters, show organizer.

The holiday craft show will take place again on November 15 of next year.
