A little dust makes a difference…

I’m not a fan of snow. In fact, I’m a chionophobe. But our decorative miniature cemetery looked very different the first time it saw snow…somehow a little dusting made the silk flowers look real, the Styrofoam marble and the statues menacing.

I might even be tempted to leave it up through the winter next year. What do y’all think?
