Snow Day!

DIY goes outdoors in dozens of projects for creating witty and innovative designs in the snow. This title offers simple ideas such as a snow lantern (made of snowballs) and snow angels rub shoulders with larger-scale creations like a snow bar for an outdoor cocktail party and a winter fireplace for roasting marshmallows and camping in the snow. A section on snow games and play - from a snowball fight with real rules to forging footprints with handmade snowshoes - is ideal for group fun. There's even a 'no-snow' section including frozen munchies (edibles for ice cubes) and other freezer crafts. Ralston keeps it stylish and simple throughout, interspersing snow facts and miscellany with clear step-by-step instructions, advice for using the simplest household tools, and full-colour photos of each finished project.
