Add Thomas FX movie snow to your Christmas Tree this year and make every ornament and light on the tree sparkle.

Fake Movie Snow from Thomas FX is used to decorate Christmas window displays by many of the leading retailers in the United States.

There is still one day left to order fake snow direct from Thomas FX before we close for the Holidays.

Fedex orders received today will ship tomorrow and should be delivered before Christmas.

Reminder: We will be closed tomorrow between 11:30 and 1:30 for our annual Christmas Luncheon. After 1:30 we will still be celebrating and will be inviting store customers to share in our  "Christmas Cheer".

We wish everyone a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

Yesterday we received a large shipment of Mehron makeup effects products. This shipment augments our existing inventory, and while we still have orders inbound from other suppliers, we are well stocked with professional makeup effects products.

One product, a turnkey Zombie makeup effects kit, will be of particular interest to people who might want to participate in the annual Vancouver Zombie Walk for the first time.

This year the Zombie Walk takes place on August 18'th through the streets of Downtown Vancouver.

Repeat participants already know that Thomas FX stocks lots and lots of blood, plus many realistic body parts and organs such as brains, hearts and intestines. Please check our website for more information about Zombie Walk supplies.

We also carry a large stock of theatrical contact lenses. These are quality contact lenses that can be worn multiple times and will last for years. Our Theatrical Contacts are NOT the "disposable" one time wear contacts that some stores are selling.

For people looking for REALLY special contact lenses, we can order in a pair of Sclera Halloween contacts for you, and we can even have them made to your prescription.

If you can't find what you are looking for on our website right now, keep checking back as we will be adding lots of new products to our online store in the next few days, and also in the weeks that follow.

You are also welcome to drop into our bricks and mortar store in North Vancouver if you prefer to shop in person. We are located just at the North end of the Second Narrows Bridge on Riverside Drive just South off Dollarton Highway.

Have fun during the Zombie Walk everyone, but don't hurt anyone or cause any damage. It would be a shame for this annual event to go away.

Every year the Royal Bank of Canada sponsors the prestigious Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of the Year Awards.

On May 9'th between 3:00 pm - 5:00 pm the British Columbia Forum for Women Entrepreneurs has organized an information seminar on the 35'th floor of the Royal Bank Building at 1055 West Georgia Street in Vancouver.

Betty Thomas Quee, President of Thomas FX, will be one of the panel presenters at this event. Betty was nominated for Canadian Entrepreneur of the Year in 1997, and again in 1998 when she WON the Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of the Year Award. Betty has been a role model and mentor for Women Entrepreneurs for many years and has volunteered as a Judge for the annual Awards competion for nearly a decade. She is an Honourary Lifetime Member of BC Women In Film & Video.

Throughout her career Betty has always been at the forefront of change and innovation. She was the first female Stuntperson in Canada, the first female Stunt Coordinator in Canada, the first female Second Unit Director in Canada, and to our knowledge the first and only film industry Woman Entrepreneur to be recognized as Canadian Woman Entrepreneur of the Year. It is only fitting that she is also President and Board Chair of the Thomas FX Group  . . .  the first Special Effects company in Canada.
