MINOT, ND (KXNET) — More than 250 booths lined the walls of the state fair center today, and hundreds of people came to get into the holiday spirit. The Big One Craft Fair kicked off its 34th Annual Minot Christmas Show this morning.

More than 175 exhibitors came to showcase products made across the nation.

One vendor, Susan Knutson, is selling what she calls an experience. Her exhibit, Sue's Novel Escape, has a new way to enjoy reading, called Date Night with a Book.

She said you get to pick your genre and she'll pick you a book that comes with different self-care items, such as tea and face masks.

"We sell so many for gifts and people love it, they love the whole experience. If you're looking for that hard-to-buy-for person this is perfect and I carry ages 1 to 100," Knutson said.
