As a Christmas enthusiast, I love decorating my home with festive items, including fake snow. Over the years, I’ve experimented with various options like batting, glitter mixes, and aerosol sprays, but I found that they often fell short in key areas: they didn’t look realistic, were not environmentally friendly, or were too expensive. However, I stumbled upon the perfect solution right in my bathroom – Epsom salt.
Why Epsom Salt Works as the Best Fake Snow
Realistic Appearance: Epsom salt mimics the appearance of snow better than other materials. It heaps, piles up, and scatters beautifully, making it look like the real thing.
Inexpensive: A bag of Epsom salt costs less than a dollar per pound, and it’s easily found at most grocery stores.
Environmentally-Friendly: Unlike glitter, polyester fiberfill, and other materials, Epsom salt is safe and eco-friendly. It’s easy to clean up and won’t damage surfaces.
Versatile: It can be used on various surfaces like furniture, glass, and metal without worrying about stains.
