Default Ideas for "snowflake" themed fancy dress

So it is the end of the adaptive ski program in Vancouver and to celebrate the instructors are having a party on Friday.

I've just found out that is has a "snowflake" theme

Any ideas on what Mr L2S and I can do with 2 days notice?

I'm thinking very white and flaky. Go as Rick Mercer.

I asked the internet:

As you don't have too many days to sort your costume how about Snow Queen and King or Snow man/woman - shouldn't be too difficult to source.

Can you think laterally about this maybe - costume bit not the "other" snowflake.


White don't you dress up as two bars of white choccie cadburys snowflakes? Wrap yourselves in cardboard boxes (painted white) then get some yellow crepe paper (or whatever the colour of the wrapping is) and stick it with pva glue over the top. The pva will dry see through and then you can get a permanent marker and write the words on the wrapper!

Hows about wearing dark clothes & putting 'fake dandruff' on your shoulders - unless you have the real thing

Just make a sign to hang around each of you necks

Sign 1: 'Snow time to make a costume'
Sign 2: 'I'm just a flake'

Sorry
