      <image:title>Blog - Jingle All the Way - Crafting the perfect soundtrack for the season</image:title>
      <image:caption>Lucky for me, my husband, Michael, is a songwriter, arranger and music producer at Saga Recording. So, I threw him the challenge. A couple days later, he invited me out to the studio. He had just finished producing a big album for a client. Typically, he’ll play a song or two for me. But instead of playing a track from the album, he rolled his chair over to the piano and began playing a simple tune, to which he sang: “Sparkling, shining, for all to see… Vancouver on the Christmas tree.” It was a perfect lyric and a sweet little melody, with just the right amount of sparkle.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Jingle All the Way - One part retro, one part joy</image:title>
      <image:caption>He wanted my input before fully arranging it. Did I want a mellow Vince Guaraldi vibe, like A Charlie Brown Christmas? (He knows it’s one of my all-time favorite holiday albums.) Or something more traditional? I reminded him that my brand is all about joy—with a big dose of retro charm—so he suggested a 1940s Big Band feel. A day later, Michael played an initial arrangement for me. At first, I couldn’t get the simple piano version of out my head. I was Lucy at Schroeder’s piano going, “No, no... I mean ‘Jingle Bells.’ You, know, Santa Claus and Ho Ho Ho…” But once the full arrangement came together—with bass, strings, horns and, of course, jingle bells—I fell in love. All we needed was our friend A.J. Turner to lend a joyful, Nat King Cole-style vocal.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Now, with Christmas just a month away, I have my very own jingle! Depending on the algorithms, you may or may not hear it in my Facebook and Instagram ads, so I thought I’d share it here on my blog first. Give it a listen, but be warned, you might just find yourself humming it long after the holidays.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - “Vancouver Special” Christmas Ornament: so cute it should be outlawed - The “Vancouver Special” was once the most reviled house design in the city</image:title>
      <image:caption>Now it’s feeling a resurgence of love in Vancouver’s pop culture My Vancouver Special Christmas ornament — with its low-pitched roof, straight balcony and classic variegated orange brick across the front — is a miniature composite of the thousands of these iconic houses in my East Van neighbourhood. While I think my ornament is quite adorable, not everyone felt that way about the houses themselves.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - “Vancouver Special” Christmas Ornament: so cute it should be outlawed - “Devoid of architecture, devoid of charm”</image:title>
      <image:caption>Detractors quoted in the Vancouver Sun called Vancouver Specials “bland stucco houses, devoid of architecture, devoid of charm,” “lot-line monsters” and “ugly and box-like.” Harsh words considering what a hit they were among home-buyers. The simple, boxy house design of the Vancouver Special was created in the 1960s by draftsman Larry Cudney to provide a low-cost option for family homes. The design exploited a loophole in the building code, which didn’t include the square footage of basements in the allotted home size. Cudney’s plans sunk the homes 18-inch below grade, which allowed the house to be built at double the footprint of other homes. This was particularly appealing to immigrants with multi-generational households and those wanting to create suites in the “basement.”</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - “Vancouver Special” Christmas Ornament: so cute it should be outlawed - Pick two: cheap, fast, pretty</image:title>
      <image:caption>The drafting plans could be purchased for less than a hundred dollars and the standardization of plans meant the city approvals could be done in lightning speed. At the height of their popularity, building suppliers stocked everything needed to build the homes. As a result, construction firms could have the homes completed in a little as three weeks! No wonder they were so popular! Perhaps, a little too popular... By the late ‘80s, Vancouver Specials made up an estimated 11 per cent of houses in the Hasting Sunrise area and five per cent in Marpole. In total, about 10,000 Vancouver Specials were built before Vancouver’s city council outlawed their construction in 1988.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Artificial Christmas trees vs. fresh Christmas trees - How to choose the right Christmas tree for you</image:title>
      <image:caption>My dad was a logger, and when I still lived at home, we’d trek out together in the snow on our property or along the road allowance to chop down the perfect tree. For years after I left home, I still bought a fresh tree. I would have the guy at the tree lot saw off a couple inches at the bottom so that it could take up water better to help the needles last as long as possible. There’s nothing better than the smell of a fresh, live tree! Once I got married, we began visiting my husband’s family in Detroit every other Christmas. We had house sitters and didn’t feel comfortable leaving a fresh tree that could dry out and become a fire hazard. So, against my longstanding tradition, I bought a seven-foot artificial tree. We were fortunate to find one that looked so real it actually fools many of our house guests, especially when I tuck fir-scented rods deep within the branches. Since going artificial, we’ve never looked back. Okay, maybe once or twice I’ve cursed under my breath at the artificial tree, but for the most part it’s been a great choice, especially for a blown-glass Christmas ornament connoisseur like me. Keep in mind, whether you choose fresh or artificial, they each have their pros and cons. This will help you choose wisely!</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - This water taxi’s next stop: your Christmas Tree - No visit to Vancouver is complete without a ride on a water taxi!</image:title>
      <image:caption>These iconic ferries were the inspiration for my 2021 Vancouver Christmas Ornament design: a red and white water taxi! As a local, I’ve enjoyed the spectacular views they provide, transporting our kids (and often visiting friends) along False Creek from English Bay and Yaletown to Granville Island, Science World and points between. I’m also captivated by the water taxi ballet put on by False Creek Ferries every year on Canada Day and just before the fireworks celebrations in late July and early August. The choreography is amazing! Their repertoire includes Figure 8s, crossovers and starbursts to name a just a few. We love watching them as we wait for the fireworks to begin. One year we even scored a perfect viewing spot on the Burrard Bridge.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - This water taxi’s next stop: your Christmas Tree - What makes this water taxi ornament special?</image:title>
      <image:caption>This adorable ornament is fashioned after the particular ferries designed by marine architect Jay Benford and used by both Aquabus and False Creek Ferries in Vancouver and at Fisherman’s Wharf in Victoria. For my design, I wanted to make sure you could see through the glass windows of the ornament, and am particularly pleased with the little resin life preserver on top! The ornament measures about 4 inches long, 2.5 inches tall, and 1.75 inches wide, featuring a red metallic hull and a glossy white top with gold, navy and blue accents. This cutie will be an annual reminder on my Christmas tree of those fun family times.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - Pacific Dogwood Ornament: This one is for Mom</image:title>
      <image:caption>My elegant ornament of the Pacific Dogwood — the floral emblem of British Columbia — has special meaning for me. I dedicate it to my mom and my grandmother. In addition to our shared love of flowers, I suspect it has something to do with the fact that dogwoods were also a favourite of my grannie, Doris.  Grannie chose Stylecraft’s  "Midwinter Dogwood” as her everyday dinnerware set, so the association between her and dogwoods is ingrained in my mind. I think this is why I gravitated to the rarer four-petal design. Pacific Dogwoods can have anywhere from four to six petals (technically, they're not petals but bracts), and most have five. I'm sentimental and the dogwood on my Grannie's dishes had four petals. So, so does my ornament. My grandma, Doris Needham, loved dogwoods.</image:caption>
