What's new at Chi Omega Christmas Market?

SOS PJs

Loyal Chi Omega Christmas Market shoppers will find virtually everything is new at this year’s event. From the September 26-28 shopping dates to the Dallas Market Hall location to the 100+ new merchants, even devoted enthusiasts will have much to discover.

Parking will be plentiful — and free — at Market Hall, and of the 225+ total merchants, about half will be new in 2024. Many vendors, unable to participate in previous years due to conflicting markets around the country, eagerly signed up for the earlier date.

Here are just a few of the merchants signed up to attend:

Atlanta artist Stephanie Kenney began designing handcrafted jewelry more than ten years ago. She credits her mom’s European background and her own love of international travel as her main sources of inspiration, and she uses materials sourced from Prague, Istanbul, Morocco and Uruguay.

Tyler-based Foster will bring their collegiate lifestyle goods, which celebrate school spirit and festive memories. From playing cards to pajamas, from scarves to sippee cups, you’ll be repping your team on game day.

What do you get the man who has everything? RGO Sports will offer autographed sports memorabilia, including rings, balls, bats and other collectibles.

Chocolate Moonshine Co. will bring their gourmet fudge and other decadent chocolate creations, hand-stirred in small batches with natural ingredients. Almond coconut is unsurprisingly addicting, but don’t sleep on the lemon meringue.

Seguin-based Iron Oak Apparel, pioneer of the Original Pearl Snap Polo, will target western enthusiasts and country boys of all ages.

There’s nothing more comfortable than a traditional Mexican dress and nothing trendier than a hand-painted fedora. Ropa Tradicional Juanita will bring her south-of-the-border finds to Big D.

Classy Chargers will travel from Newport Beach, California to offer colorful, monogrammed tech gadgets, including phone chargers and power banks.

Nashville-based Mary Kathryn Designs will offer trendy and eclectic jewelry pieces inspired by nostalgia for the ‘90s and 2000s. That’s hot.

Mahjong is everywhere in Dallas these days, and Oh My Mahjong will offer the finest tiles, mats, cocktail napkins and other items to add vibrant color to this long-standing traditional game.

If Pickleball’s more your jam, Taylor Gray has colorful neoprene paddle covers, plus beaucoup other stylish accessories and gifts.

Is your adorable little one fully Texan if they don’t have a pair of western boots from Austin? Using the highest quality of soft leather, these Nomandino creations are also great for the memory box.

Three Pearls & Co. is named for a mother and her two daughters who sell lifestyle trucker hats, wide brims and fun apparel.

Must Draw Dogs’ talented artist is based in Redondo Beach, California, and provides custom hand-drawn pet sketches of your pooch, kitty or other pet.

Planning a girls’ trip this winter? Chicago-based S.O.S. PJs has beautiful pajamas, robes and kaftans for all your bed, brunch and vacation days.

Oklahoma City-based Crockstar Dinner Club will bring their prepackaged crockpot meals. Easy and convenient, they require no prep work — just add your protein and let the crockpot do the rest.

There’s nothing more touching than receiving a gift that’s been personalized. Kelly in Stitches handcrafts embroidery on textiles of all kinds, from baby swaddles to blue jeans, from cardigans to cocktail napkins.

What isn’t new in 2024 is Chi Omega’s commitment to finding unique merchants from across the country and raising funds for Dallas’ most dedicated nonprofit organizations. COCM, which gave away more than half a million dollars last year, will distribute funds to Ascend Dallas, Behind Every Door, Bonton Enterprises, Children’s Craniofacial Association, Family Compass, Genesis Women’s Shelter & Support, Make-A-Wish of North Texas, Network of Community Ministries, Swan Strings, Texas International Theatrical Arts Society, The Stewpot, Together We Thrive and Young Women’s Preparatory Network and will provide college scholarships.
