No Space for a Traditional Christmas Tree? Try These
12 Brilliant Alternatives
The holidays are fast approaching and the excitement is mounting. It’s now time to head to the attic or storage
locker and pull out your outdoor decora-tions. Perhaps you are thinking that this year you really want your external space to surpass last year – to be unique, to be “that house” that shines with inspirational and distinctive décor.
REW.ca spoke to Jennifer Scott, designer/owner at A Good Chick To Know Design Consultation, for her best tips.
“First off , don’t be shy. Then, start by looking at what you already have and experiment with how you can incorporate those items into a new design,” says Scott. “Going the personal route, where you also incorporate some homemade decorations is more fun and gives a warm feeling to your exterior, while saying a little bit about your personality.”
Scott’s Top Eight Outdoor Holiday Décor Ideas1. Bring the indoors outdoors
With the use of cost-eff ective rattan
outdoor blinds and an outdoor heater, winter weather can easily be blocked from patio spaces. It gives us the opportunity to extend our living spaces even during the cooler months whether for personal relax-ation or holiday soirees. Layering textured blankets and faux furs on the seating and rolling out an outdoor rug instantly warms up the area and creates holiday appeal.2. Let there be light
If you’ve been putting your lights up the same way year after year, rethink where you place them. “You can add lights and ribbon onto your planters,” she adds. “Wrap the lights around the base to create a nice holiday glow at the front entrance.”
Delicate string lights are an easy trick that looks chic all season, not just for the holidays. Try winding them through the backs of outdoor seating or up the base of planters.
And if you have a tangled mess of lights (and who hasn’t?) repurpose them by plac-ing them inside an old unused planter or large hurricane lantern and voila – chic and trendy.
3. DIY kids’ art garlandA super-adorable approach to holiday
decorating is to take a bundle of your favourite homemade artwork by the kid-dies and have it laminated so it’s weath-erproof; then, string them together on twine to make a personalized garland for your fence or front porch, or even around a front yard tree with lights for a true Christmas feel.4. DIY door wreath
Rather than the traditional arbour wreath that sheds needles all over your entranceway, I’m really into the interior trend of woolen or rope wall hangings. For my door this year, I’m making an easy DIY macramé hanging suspended from a cop-per pipe; again putting the small twinkle lights to use, winding them through the weaving.5. Light cube “gifts” for the yard
Used as both side tables and stools, white plastic cubes with interior LED lights are safe for indoor and outdoor use. For the Christmas season, try wrapping wide ribbon around them and placing a group-
ing of them in the yard or on the patio as simulated presents. 6. Light-� lled jars to give glow to your steps
Line the front steps with mason jars or lanterns and put single tea lights in them to invite guests up to the door. A fi re-free alternative would be to gather and bundle a small string of battery-operated lights and place them in the jars for the same eff ect. If you’re keen to make the look a little more festive, add a layer of faux snow and some twine or ribbon around the tops of the vessels.7. Driftwood “trees”
To create the illusion of a Christmas tree at the door or front of the house, gather sticks of driftwood in varying lengths and mount (from top down) sized small to large until you have a triangle shape, mimicking the shape of the traditional tree. 8. Have fun!
Finally, don’t be too caught up in what looks cool and fashionable. “Whatever you do with your décor, have fun,” adds Scott. “The spirit of Christmas is about allowing your inner self to shine through.”

North Vancouver’s Lynn Valley is coming into its own and in the epicentre of
this extensive renaissance is The Residences at Lynn Valley by Bosa Development. At the gateway to the Trans Canada Trail system – with more than 400 individual hiking, walking and cycling trails – The Residences is minutes away from the best of Mother Nature’s play-ground.
“Lynn Valley’s amazing natural setting and strong community spir-it are what inspired our vision for The Residences,” says Nat Bosa, visionary founder and president of Bosa Development. “Homes are at sky level, with oversized windows and large balconies looking out to stunning mountain and valley views. The Residences celebrate a way of life that we feel honoured to bring to this community.”
Designed by the award-winning Chris Dikeakos Architects, when complete, this master-planned community will feature six con-
crete Whistler-inspired buildings, ranging from four to 12 storeys encompassing 350 homes, a fully renovated Lynn Valley Centre Mall and new retail space in addition to the new public gathering spac-es featuring stunning public art. There’s a sense of community that permeates the neighbourhood cul-ture that Lynn Valley is known for.
In addition, the rustic timbers and steeply pitched roofl ines pay homage to the surrounding land-scape, while a rooftop garden and an array of outdoor amenities embrace the Lynn Valley lifestyle.
Inside, the surrounding elements of nature blur the line between interior and outdoor. Each home features wide-plank engineered hardwood fl oors in a palette of earth tones, generous ceilings, fl oor-to-ceiling windows and air conditioning – providing touches to enhance comfort. The fi rst phase of The Residences consists of two beautiful boutique-style buildings with the most expansive outdoor
spaces and highest ceilings in the development and features exclu-sive homes including one-, two- and three-bedroom homes rang-ing from 511 to 2,285 square feet, many with dens or fl ex spaces.
“The Residences are understated yet sophisticated, cozy yet clean,” says Cristina Oberti of Cristina Oberti Interior Design Inc. “One feels a sense of comfort and of inviting space, but fi ner details, such as the high-end appliances, wood and stone and porcelain tile fi nishes work to give the spaces a very luxurious and resort-like feel.”
The epicurean centre of the home is highlighted by Italian cabi-netry, a premium integrated Bosch
appliance package, including a gas cooktop, high end quartz counter-tops with waterfall edges and a solid slab backsplash.
The Zen-inspired ensuite bath-rooms are showcased by porcelain tile on the fl oor and walls and the imported Italian cabinets add a touch of warmth to the otherwise serene and very soft bathroom set-ting.
In addition, there are oversized balconies, triple-glazed windows for superior soundproofi ng, air-conditioning and two elevators in each building to get residents in and out fast.
“It’s not just a place to live and work, but a place of refuge where
you want to escape to and relax,” adds Oberti.
This is an exciting opportunity to buy a magnifi cent home in a sought-after neighbourhood in a premium location, built by a devel-oper with a stellar track record for quality and integrity spanning more than three decades. At The Residences at Lynn Valley, every detail has been carefully planned to off er superiority and refi ned liv-ing spaces.

Residences at Lynn Valley please
