What artificial snow do you use and is it easy to apply and still get a nice realistic appearance?

Eric, there are a few ways of doing this, but I feel the best and most economical way is to buy a hite styrofoam ball at any craft store, make sure it isn't white bead board, and use a rasp on it creating snow. There are some spray adhesives out there that will not eat this foam and that is what you should use. You can use a water/elmers mix that will work but the sprays are nicer. If you need deeper mounds of snow, buld it up first with fiber fill or anything like that and then put your snow on after that.

I like using the snow flocking myself. You can do just about anything you want with it then spay it with water and let dry. That's it!
