We are expanding our community!
Etsy Dallas is now Handmade DFW!
The 2026 Jingle Bash has been cancelled
Handmade DFW has made the difficult decision to cancel the 2026 Jingle Bash, originally scheduled for November 21 at Gilley's South Side Events Center.
This decision was not made lightly. After listening to feedback from makers and evaluating the changing landscape of handmade markets throughout North Texas, our leadership team believes this is the right time to step back and thoughtfully reimagine what Jingle Bash should be moving forward.
We are incredibly grateful to every artist, volunteer, sponsor, shopper, and supporter who has been part of Jingle Bash over the years. Your creativity and support have built something special, and we look forward to sharing what comes next.

Handmade DFW is a trade organization for handmade creatives who want to grow (or start!) their creative business.
Handmade DFW is opening membership again, and if you remember Etsy Dallas, this is the next chapter of that same creative community.
We’re a local trade organization for makers, artists, and creative entrepreneurs who want to grow, connect, and support each other. This is a space for artists at every stage, from just starting out to well established businesses. If you’ve been looking for your people, this is where you find them. Become a member to get access to classes and workshops, networking events, and mentorship and peer support.
We are now Handmade DFW Collective!
Nearly two decades ago we started as Etsy Dallas, supporting local Etsy sellers.
As our community grew beyond Etsy, we became Dallas M.A.D.E.
But we quickly realized that our makers, artists, and small businesses span across North Texas, so we’re stepping into a name that truly fits.
We are now Handmade DFW Collective!
Same heart. Same mission.
Just more room for our growing handmade community.
Community Over Competition.
Core to our values is that we strive to support each other and our community as a whole.
