Make your own snow

I have lived in several different parts of the country during my life and no matter where I am there's one thing that always puts me in the Christmas mood - Snow!
So today I want to share with you a little secret on how to make your own faux snow to add to all of your altered projects this winter!
Supplies Needed:
~ White paint
~ Salt - Coarse salt works and looks best in my opinion so think Kosher Salt
~ Disposable paper plate
~ paint brush - any kind will do
Step 1: pour a good amount of salt on your plate.
Step 2: Add white paint and stir with your brush until it looks like mud (when it looks like mud it's perfect)

Step 3: Apply it to your altered project and allow it to dry!
Yes - it's that easy!
Here's my finished altered bird house with my added snow!

Now what are you waiting for - go make your own snow!
