Please keep within a "upscale" boutique style, holiday theme.

3) Chairs
4) No vinyl outdoor banners are allowed inside. Table top framed signage, chalkboard style signage are acceptable. Tall / large retractable signs will be place against east wall of rear lanes, so you are not blocking views of other booths.

Please keep signage to a minimum - keeping tables clean, classy & upscale.
