Markets to check out this weekend

If the red Starbucks cups are anything to go by, Christmas season is (already) upon us, so if you want to gift something unique this year, head to these markets for local stationery, kids' toys and geeky collectibles. Happy shopping!

From Pen to Paper (Nov 14-15)
Lovers of pretty stationery, look no further. Local brands Obsolete & Co, Tabiyo Shop, The Alphabet Press and Bok Tjuv among many others will sell stationery, vintage finds, magazines and prints – all in the spirit of encouraging the art of using pen and paper.

Molly's Neverland Market (Nov 14)
Here's a cool market for kid-friendly stuff. Molly’s Neverland Market has clothes, toys, arts and crafts, and more for children and toddlers by featured vendors Momage, Leetle Tateh, Sukka Project, Little Habitats and host M by Chen.

ibu Charity Christmas Market (Nov 14)
Another one for parents and kids. Non-profit organisation ibu hosts its regular Christmas charity market with stalls selling clothes, toys, books and baby equipment. Proceeds will go to local charities. 

Komik Kon (Nov 13-15)
Not exclusively a market (it's so much more than that), the inaugural edition of Komik Kon features plenty of vendors selling and trading various pop culture collectibles, comic books and more. There's also the Food Truck Fiesta happening on festival grounds – aside from cosplay competitions, performances, a lightsaber stunt performance and meet-and-greet sessions.
