Steam in Transition Country: USA | Posts: 943 cprac4400 Posted - 12/24/2005 :  10:19:26   It is Woodlands Scenic snow. I tried the stuff in the spray can,the stuff they use to frost X-mas trees with, but it turned to powder and fell off. Here is a couple more pics.

Used the MTL North Pole Village structures and the Hallmark church ornament. And people say Christmas is too commercialized. Have not gotten a shareable photo yet. I also used the Woodland Scenic snow which I shifted over a fresh coat of latex paint. I used hair spray on the evergreens and then shifted the snow over them to give a generous coating, just like I remember from MN last year before I moved.
