Holiday-themed gifts, delectable seasonal treats and more available at holiday market during its 8-week run <\/em><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n BETHLEHEM, PA\u2014Christkindlmarkt presented by Univest Financial\u00ae will host a diverse array of nearly 80 artisans, both annual favorites and exciting new vendors alike, during its eight-weekend run Oct. 8-Nov. 29. Whether you want to get your holiday shop on, eat some delectable holiday foods or taste handcrafted wines and liquors, the event will offer something for all tastes.<\/p>\n BG Silversmiths, <\/strong>owned by the Gebhart family, offers handmade argentium sterling silver, 14K gold filled and gemstone jewelry. While Sandi Gebhart operates the company now after her husband Barry\u2019s passing, BG Silversmiths has a true passion for metal in its roots. Barry was a former Bethlehem Steel worker, like his father and grandfather before him, but expressed his creative side through jewelry design and music. The Gebhart family has been in the handmade silver business since 1969.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Drakesflakes <\/strong>will be at Christkindlmarkt for one weekend only, Oct. 15-18, to offer their contemporary designer snowflake ornaments and jewelry named after cold, snowy places all over the world. Based in the peaceful Pocono Mountains, this craftsman strives to create distinctive and eye-catching products.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Stroopie\u2019s<\/strong>, a Lancaster-based company, will offer your own little piece of Christmas to take home and eat. Their specialty is the stroopwaffle, a thin, flakey waffle with a delicately sweet, caramel layer between. It wouldn\u2019t be Christkindlmarkt without this authentic, seasonal treat enjoyed by all ages.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Christkindlmarkt Bethlehem will feature 60 artisans and vendors each weekend, with some on-site for all eight weekends and others appearing for only a week or two.
