Time to start whittling down that gift list: The 25th annual International Gift Festival, featuring crafts from Ten Thousand Villages, continues through Saturday at the Glenwood Springs Mennonite Church. Renée Mason of Glenwood Springs has been an enthusiastic shopper at the sale for the past 20 years and was especially attracted to the colorful scarves on offer this year. Hand-crafted home décor, toys, musical instruments, jewelry, soaps and holiday gifts are imported from 38 countries with the goal of improving the livelihood of tens of thousands of disadvantaged artisans around the world. Hours for the festival are noon to 8 p.m. through Friday and 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday.
