I actually got the small houses to do a WWII diorama, but wasn't able to get the figures I needed. When I found the mansion last week I knew I had to work
up something for the holidays. The figures are 1/72 scale Imex Redcoats, tiny but not bad to paint. I'm still trying to find something snow-like to cover
the grass (gauze is too, well, gauzy).

There are rolls of snow you can buy. It is pressed cotton with silver sparlkies and stars. IMO vintage snow has better sparklies. If you cant find that, go to
a fabric store and by cotton lining (baton??)
Another option is to use white paper and spray it with the SNO-SPRAY used on windows. I'm not sure if this option can be used for more than one year though. There's a Canadian Dollar store called DOLLARAMMA, they sell scale lamps, roads, benches and other accessories. I'm sure other dollar stores will have them (for a buck). They also had crappy rolls of snow, but they could be improved with glitter.
