Eco friendly spray adhesive and fake snow powder? Or something else that can be easily found in our little city? (lemmy.world)

Ok! I give up trying to find this stuff on my own, heh.

Anyway, I built my wife a large outdoor miniature diarama for Christmas and I'm wanting to do a winter theme for her opening (the door), and I'm rather stumped on these.

So far, the best solution I found was snow powder/flakes and spray on adhesive, but I'm definitely open to something else (that's not overly costly, 🤷‍♂️. I spent a looooot on this so far).

It will have a dirt base, so the snow needs to adhere to that as best as possible.

Welp! It browned in several spots over night. Maybe because of the dirt? Or the heat gun? Or???

Next tests, I'll need to try a two layer method. (one with a lower layer of baking soda, and another with a toilet paper bottom. That should help to deduce if the dirt was the cause of it).

Looks like some dirt may have leaked up into the mixture? Gotta say I'm pretty invested in your project here 😅

Loving your methodical approach too!

Speaking of, I am spending way too much time on this, heh! I've got two hats and a pumpkin bag to knit, and a small painting to do ( Maybe more like these ). I'll just stick to a cloth of some kind, and let her touch it up how she wants. 🤣 .
