Let me start at the beginning. This way you'll clearly see why I get so excited about the Christmas Holiday Season. This feeling inside me starts around the beginning of December each and every year. It's a feeling I can't control because this is when my mind goes back in time to recall images of my family on Christmas morning all gathered around what we considered the most spectacular Christmas tree on the block. Early on the evening of Santa's arrival, all us kids would watch as mom and dad would move furniture to make way for the tree. There were 7 children in our family and each and every one of us would watch as the tree was inserted into the stand and tied back and secured to the wall. All we could do was patiently wait and 
watch as the frozen branches settled to a blossom. The radio would be playing carols and every once in a while the announcer would give the world an update of Santa's current location. We could tell he was getting close because soon it would be time to get ready for bed. We knew old Saint Nick wouldn't stop at our house if we were awake so when it was time, we would eagerly hit our pillows. Now we all know that getting to sleep is nearly impossible when you know what will happen next. So in my case, I would just wait it out because he's got to show up sometime before morning. Only one problem... I couldn't keep my eye's open long enough to see that jolly red suite appear, so just like the previous year, I would wake up to a Christmas Wonderland. The first rule of the morning is to wake mom and dad and us kids would watch the now decorated tree and anticipate what might be hidden inside those colourful packages under and around the tree. The rest is history and I'll never forget that magical feeling as the Christmas Spirit took over our entire family. Soon the scent of a turkey will fill every room in the house and we could hardly wait to see it on the table. That was always my favorite meal and having it Christmas Day made it very special. During the holiday season, mom and dad would take us kids downtown in Toronto to see the window displays at places like The Hudson's Bay Co. and Eatons. This was so spectacular that my eyes never forgot what they saw and after all these years I can still see the trains moving around the miniature wonderland and the artificial Santa just sitting still and appearing to be starring right at me. Then there was the glitter of the lights. I've never seen so many colours blinking on trees and buildings for as far as I could see in any direction.
I suppose this pretty much brings me to the main point of my website. A couple of years ago I decided to video tape and create a DVD of Christmas scenes on the North Shore of British Columbia where my wife Melvina and I now reside. With the help of my brother Larry, we drove around for several nights taking video's of beautifully decorated homes with brilliant lighting displays and 
about a week before Christmas I edited my first "Hank's Christmas Glitter 2004". Traditional Christmas songs were added to the soundtrack and as a package, this DVD entertained my family and friends on Christmas Day. I made only 20 or so copies that year but it was such an instant hit that I decided to produce another one the following year. Over 200 DVDs were produced in 2005 and delivered to family, friends and supporters. Additional copies were requested and sent to other parts of the world such as Hong Kong, Ireland, Iran, India, Germany, Canada and USA.
Two weeks before Christmas 2007, I made my very first sale to my good friend Betty in North Vancouver. She requested 5 copies so that she could wrap them as gifts for her family and friends to enjoy. What a wonderful feeling that was to think someone would want to share my DVD with the same holiday enthusiasum. A few days later I received a call from a lady in White Rock, BC who wanted to purchase some copies based soley on a story someone told her about Hank's Christmas Glitter. By Christmas day with the help of family & friends, 51 copies were sold along with 143
I had given as gifts, and by the end of this Christmas season, over 300 families around the world will have been entertained by one of the most spectacular holiday videos every made.
Once again the Christmas season is upon us and this year I will again be out in full force to capture and compile a whole new series of video clips as I travel through the streets of communities and towns in the lower mainland of British Columbia. I will personally visit the homes and businesses shown in this video, and as you will see, they are beautifully decorated with brilliant lighting displays and old fashion decorations never before seen in my collection of "Hank's Christmas Glitter". These Video's and DVDs are now available for everyone to enjoy. Go to my Glitter Products page for details on ordering your very own copy of "Hank's Christmas Glitter". Five dollars (5.00) from each DVD will be donated to "Hank's Christmas Glitter - Santa's Recycling for Charity Fund".
