Christmas Houses

Christmas Houses

by Rob Harris (Author), John Hartley (Author), Samantha Manning (Author)

Synopsis

In households and neighbourhoods throughout the land, elaborate plans are already underway for winter wonderlands of multi-coloured light sequences, lit-from-within inflatable snowmen and a riot of Father Christmasses and attendant reindeer. Christmas Houses pays homage to the growing UK phenomenon of yuletide house-bling, capturing the best, the wildest, and the most sophisticated motion-sensitive Santas, light displays, and lit-up grottos from all over the country.

Author Bio
John Hartley, Rob Harris and Samantha Manning have been friends for a couple of decades, since John and Sam played together in a high-school band that has long since been relegated to the dusty back-rooms of Isle of Wight local history. Rob and Sam meet a couple of years later at Winchester School of Art. Now older, and perhaps less prone to glamorous daydreams, John is a practicing artist who also works for the Arts Council, Rob a Garden Designer and landscaper and Sam a visual artist and acupuncturist.
