My 9 years old girl ask me if I wanted to make a snow fortress. I said why not! I end up alone to finish it. We we're supposed to make two snowmen guarding the door but as I was by myself, I changed my mind. So I decided to sculp two big crows with long wings laying on the ground. To construct the wall, I used a box of acrylic 22"long x 15"wide x 5"high that I made. Luckily, the snow was sticky so it was easy to pill the blocks. It took me 2h to do it, two hours of fun. Next time, I'll do a giant hand holding my front yard tree. Enjoy!

It was very icy and very thick. I would've enjoy see someone participating in the art process with his foot. Ouch!

Thanks

Where abouts do you live? I would love to get snow like this :)

I live in Quebec / Canada. We sure get a lot of snow down here. I remember 2 years ago, no joke! I'm 6 feet tall and the snow was a little bit more higher than me. The day when a made the fortress, it was a small falling snow.
