Downtown Holiday Market Gift Guide 2012: Look For These Great Items (PHOTOS)

WASHINGTON -- We've highlighted musical performances at the Downtown Holiday Market, but there's more to the market than music -- there's the actual market, too.

This year's Downtown Holiday Market features everything you'd expect from outdoor urban bazaar. Knit scarves, paintings, photographs and jewelry make up a good percentage of goods sold, but there's more. There are enough options to shop for all aspects of your holiday gift list.

Click through the slideshow to see some of our favorite vendors and items at this year's market.

If you're not sold on purchasing your gifts from the market, there's still reason to head to F Street between 7th and 9th streets NW, in front of the National Portrait Gallery. Coming up on the music front is Jonny Grave, Snakehead Run, The Sweater Set and Ian Walters. Click here for the full schedule.
