Challenge 282: More snow on the way
With Great Britain united under a blanket of snow this week, there's been almost no other topic of conversation - it fills the news headlines, as people get stuck in their cars and homes. We're also running out of salt for gritting the roads.

So, being that time of year, it seems appropriate to add some of the seasonal white stuff to this Tudor house. I'd like a snowman outside the door if you can manage it - the rest is up to you!

High res is here.

Well, yes you can come in but I think you would be better staying right there!

Just out of interest, has the bear (from a few challenges ago) melted yet?

It's difficult to say at the moment, Anna; it's under 4 feet of snow.

I know the light over the door doesn't look quite right in the top version but I felt it needed cheering up!

How's this? Does it look convincing? I think the snowman's a little too good-looking, but oh well. We've had a fair amount of snow in Indiana, with a few bad accidents, but everything's pretty much cleared up now. Have a great week everybody!
