Possibly the strangest request ever ???

Hi all,

When ive been going round the shops I have seen this fake effect snow on their xmas displays.

It is basically a roll of white foam/cotton wool material (poor explaination I know)

I keep asking but none of the shops sell it, they say display only, but id love to get my hands on some.

Does anyone know who sells this (thats if you can understand what I mean)

Cheers

Cutebabe

    Hi

    I know - you see it in all the shops but I've never actually seen anywhere selling it. If you type in fake / artificial snow into google it comes up with a few sites.

    If you go to this site and type in snow mat it comes up with some products you can buy on-line..

    The stuff looks pretty pricey as I think they sell it in bulk but you might be able to find another site through google that sells it at a better price.

    Good luck! :D

    some people use the white wadding you can buy in haberdashery shops. You could reuse it then for stuffing toys or quilting when finished with.

    I also saw some in Poundland last week. Two of them will be enough to go under the Christmas Tree. I brought some last year for the santas grotto at work.
