hmm...... that sounds good, do most people make snow that way? i also have some white crystal sand that i could sprinkle in top of the baking soda mixture....... might look really cool.

thanks for the advice!

the baking soda is a bit fiddly but from what ive seen, it leavs the best results.

just try not to touch the bases much after youve used it, since it never really glues properly and remains kind of loose

also im not sure how spray varnishing affect to either, so be careful!

Try Micro-balloons (sound stupid i know)
theyre Microscopic *noo* hollow plastic spheres that make very realistic snow.
