Star Trek - Skiing and sledding
I have a friend on Twitter who is always decorating the shop window of her local pharmacy. Easter, carnivale, Christmas... and last week she did a winter theme with skiing. Check out the pictures here:

A long long time ago a friend had made little skis for me, from coffee stirrers but I never have done anything with them as I did not like the skiing poles which were just straws.
So I got inspired and I went to look whether I could find something better in my stash. The metal rods are from file folders I believe. I also tried out spaghetti as they were lighter for Chakotay to hold up in the air.
The hill, made from styrofoam, without the "snow":
The snow I use is a sheet that sometimes new technology things come wrapped in:
The little slalom posts I made with tooth pricks and paper for the flags:

Yes, finally the first proper snow this winter! It looks like a Winter Wonderland outside and I love it. Several centimeters high. Children are happy to race down the hills on sleds. Also there are snowmen popping up everywhere.
The pictures with the duck swimrings I took on Thursday morning and when I came home in the evening it already was less snow on the balcony, you could see the ground, but on Friday it started snowing properly and still is and I just took some more proper pictures of them rolling around in the snow, snoggling and having a snow ball fight ;)
I hope it will stay for a while too, it looks so pretty.
