How to use fake snow to make a Halloween display

With trick or treating and Halloween parties back on after coronavirus put a dampener on celebrations last year, there's never been a better time to go all out with decorating your house.

A can of fake snow can turn your windows in to a terrifying Halloween window display in just minutes.

While it might seem like the sort of product you only use at Christmas, or to spray 'Just Married' on the back windscreen of a car, it turns out it's really handy at Halloween, too.

With trick or treating and Halloween parties back on after coronavirus put a dampener on celebrations last year, there's never been a better time to go all out with decorating your house.

Transforming your windows with a spooky scene is surprisingly easy, and something kids can get involved with too.

All you need are some stencils, a can of fake snow, and some black paper to go behind your design and really make it pop!

If you need stencils. Snow Windows are currently selling the following designs:

You can also have a go at making you own out of thick paper or card.

Once Halloween is over, it's easy to remove the fake snow from your windows.

Use a clean dustpan brush or hoover attachment to gently knock off the snow and sweep/suck away, or give them a wipe down with a standard glass cleaning cleaning spray and a soft cloth.

Of course, if you are more confident in your artistic abilities, you can forgo the stencils altogether and have a go at designing something freehand.
