SnowTime Tapestries don’t hang around!


Everyone loves the sparkle and twinkle of Christmas, so it's no surprise that SnowTime’s exclusive Thomas Kinkade Fibre Optic Tapestries were a best-selling product in 2012...



Everyone loves the sparkle and twinkle of Christmas, so it's no surprise that SnowTime’s exclusive Thomas Kinkade Fibre Optic Tapestries were a best-selling product in 2012. 

With new designs for 2013, the range grows to capture more of the Christmas festivities illustrated in the artist’s famous paintings. 

The range also includes exclusive, original designs from artists Nicky Boehme and Dona Gelsinger. 

SnowTimeTapestries are the perfect choice for retailers as they make eye-catching displays and complement SnowTime’s range of Christmas essentials.
 
Step in from the cold with SnowTime’s new range of Battery Operated LED Lights
SnowTime, the market-leader in Christmas lighting, has extended its collection of best-selling lights with a range of battery operated LEDs...
SnowTime, the market-leader in Christmas lighting, has extended its collection of best-selling lights with a range of battery operated LEDs.

Although there are battery-operated lights on the market currently, the life expectancy is typically a maximum of 30 days before the batteries must be replaced.

Utilising new technology, SnowTime’s sets of 300 LEDs have been laboratory tested and certified to last a minimum of 45 days on four AA batteries – smaller sets will last much longer.

The new collection features light strings, icicle lights, candle lights and net lights. The battery case is IP 44 rated and the lights can be used both inside and out. Each set is fitted with an ingenious timer that switches the lights on every day for 6 hours, then turns them off for 18 hours before lighting up again at the same time the following day.

Sara Murray, Trans-Continental Group’s Buyer believes that the battery operated lights will complement SnowTime’s existing product range and prove to be a successful new addition.

“We’ve listened to our customers who continue to search for new, cost effective products that offer convenience and versatility without compromising design or functionality.

"Battery lights remove the hassle factor, especially outdoors, where the cable for traditional lights must be run to the nearest power source.

"They also remove any safety concerns about power cables outdoors. The new range of LED battery operated lights will be available in a choice of multi-colour, warm white and ice white.

”SnowTime is well known in the industry for its innovative and eye-catching packaging. The new range of battery lights will be no exception and designs for retail display units, point of sale and marketing promotional material will be launched at the Harrogate Christmas and Gift Fair and again at Spring Fair Birmingham.
‘Walking in the Air’ with SnowTime!


SnowTime are again leading the way in 2013, having taken out an exclusive license for ‘The Snowman’ and the Snow Dog’, the sequel to the hugely popular ‘The Snowman’ film and book which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year...



SnowTime are again leading the way in 2013, having taken out an exclusive license for ‘The Snowman’ and the Snow Dog’, the sequel to the hugely popular ‘The Snowman’ film and book which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year.

The iconic character, along with his new companion the Snow Dog, will feature in a brand new range of SnowTime products, including lights, fibre optic trees and tapestries.

The original ‘Snowman’ movie has been broadcast regularly over its 30-year life with more than 2 million DVDs having been sold. 

Channel 4 premiered the new film in 2012 to a fanfare of publicity and great critical acclaim.

Mike Withers, Managing Director at The Trans-Continental Group, reports that interest in the licensed product has been huge from retail buyers and he expects sales to rocket in the Christmas 2013 season and beyond.
 
SnowTime’s Petal Perfection!
Having steadily grown in popularity since first being introduced in 2009, the Cherry Blossom Tree range has been developed to a higher specification and includes new colour combinations...



Having steadily grown in popularity since first being introduced in 2009, the Cherry Blossom Tree range has been developed to a higher specification and includes new colour combinations.

SnowTime’s market leading Blossom Trees feature pre-attached blossoms, dense petal and LED saturation, much higher than some alternatives available on the market and a convenient 10m lead wire. 

A more durable, thicker wire also offers increased stability in poor weather conditions; all of which ensure SnowTime remain the market leaders, supplying a superior quality product. 

The enhanced specification is available in a variety of colours that include white, warm white, blue and super green. 

SnowTime will be launching a combined warm white and ice white tree at Harrogate Gift Christmas & Fair 2013. With a 5ft tree selling at retail for less than £50, the improved retail prices will provide a big factor in consumer buy-in.
