THRILLED TO BITS! Exactly what I was looking for. All the others go on about diy but always add a 'snow' product. Thank you so much, although I know that it is years since your original post. I hope that your gorgeous kitty is still well. Living in Australia at this time of the year is so hot (read melting) that a bit of snow on the Christmas tree will be a 'cool' look.

I live in Australia so the spackle I used had a grey tinge to it, so I added a few squirts of white acrylic paint to the mixture....got the right consistency.....added some fake snow glitter as it dried....which only took about 15 minutes....pretty warm here today. Looks great!

Too bad you can't just leave the tree out year-round. It seems like it perfectly compliments all the other bedroom updates, and it would solve the plant problem. ;) I also like the little silver poinsettia/holly/pine sprig (that I'm sure you made) by the horse's hind legs. <br /><br />I would love to have your decorating ambition and skills. I'm mostly like "Ugh, why bother? It's just more to have to dust (or more to have to put away at the end of the season)." Heh.<br /><br />I'm loving all the posts lately, but please don't get burned out again!
