so here's the thing, as i work at a big box craft store. if someone does the craft show circuit, customers are going to want halloween stuff FOR halloween, which means crafters have to make it in august. customers are going to want xmas stuff FOR xmas, so crafters have to make that in august too.

and at my craft store, we do already have xmas ribbon. i hate it, but there it is.

edit to add timely link: Why is Halloween starting in the summer?
