MARTHA STEWART HOLIDAY CRAFT SALE

Where: Starrett-Lehigh Building, 601 W 26th St between Eleventh and Twelfth Aves, ninth floor (marthastewart.com)
When: Saturday, December 5, noon-6pm, free
Why go: It’s the domestic diva’s first-ever holiday craft sale, which features home accessories, jewelry, ornaments and apparel from employees and friends of Martha Stewart Living Ominmedia, as well as crafters who’ve appeared on the Martha Stewart Show. In other words: by Stepford types, for Stepford types.
Don’t miss: BrooklynVegan’s DJ Bill Pearis spinning holiday music and indie rock, and the very Martha-esque gift-wrapping station. – Time Out

There’s also a craft fair on Mulberry Street, and the Bust Holiday Craftacular is Sunday.

Sunday is also the day to see Beatles songs performed on ukuleles.

Sam Champion make a rare appearance at Union Hall tonight. In fact, it might be their last show ever.

Q: Did Sam Champion break up?
A: Kind of, yeah, I think so.

Q: Is Saturday, December 5th at Union Hall your last show?
A: maybe?

Sam Champion member Sean Bones will DJ between sets. Sam Champion’s remake of Weekend at Bernie’s below..
