Mister Style (a welcome recent addition to Downtown) shows you don’t need a lot of lights to dress up for the holidays. We love this display. It’s elegant and inviting — just like the shop. If you haven’t been, check it out. It’s on East Maple between Casa Pernoi and Barbara Boz.

Be sure to follow Birmingham By Design for news about Downtown Birmingham. It’s not just a brand new website from Factory’s Izabela Skonieczka and Mark Lantz, it’s your home for all things home.

Check out this side hustle from Factory’s Izabela Skonieczka and Mark Lantz: Birmingham By Design is an all-new website focused on the interior design and home décor scene in Downtown Birmingham. You’ll find profiles of Downtown’s home furnishings shops, restaurants and hotels. And a lot more. Find it at birminghambydesign.com.

It’s hiking season. So if you’re making your way through the Huron-Clinton Metroparks, keep an eye out for the trail signage (and badges) we created. And consider doing the Metroparks Trail Challenge and see if you can complete all 18 featured trails.

Factory’s Mark Lantz chats with the Troy Chamber on the current Members On The Mic podcast. It’s 20 minutes of fun, information and the occasional pearl of wisdom. Check it out wherever quality podcasts are available. And thanks to Tara Tomcsik-Husak and Sheila Denstaedt for the invite!

ICYMI: Earlier this year, the RTA unveiled a sleek and modern logo, with a new tagline that invites riders to Get on Board! The rebrand and public campaigns are part of steering the narrative on transit, boosting awareness, support, and ridership.

Confession time: For the first year ever, we didn’t do a Factory Christmas card. It got lost in the shuffle of our move to Troy. Next year, we’ll have a card again. In the meantime, here’s this wintry photo of our new home. Happy holidays to all! And stay warm!
