I know it’s early but I left my husband for a few hours yesterday, two cans of snow spray and asked him to do something nice with it on our front room window.. Came home to this, amazing stuff I think. Should I start pimping him out, would you pay for this, how much? If

That's a shame (re not seeing the actual video).
Still, they look remarkably crisp and he's improved even from yesterday.
And you didn't know he could do this until yesterday? He's so modest.

I knew he could draw, and sculpt as a hobby. He did a snowman one last year that was lovely but this is just amazingly beautiful in my opinion. When his friend suggested today that he could make money from doing it I could see he looked hesitant, Art is an enjoyable hobby to him and I think he’d rather keep it that way.

not sure how to fix that.

They are lovely. What does he do for a living?

I would pay £150-£200 for these (Manchester). Would be stunning on my conservatory! Where are you based?

South coast.

Oh wow!
I repeat my earlier post, I would defo pay for that. Love it.

thaisweetchill · 22/11/2025 23:03

Amazing! We had snow art on our bi fold doors last years and it was £250 for 5 doors. The lady who does it is fully booked in June for Christmas, he could really bring in the money!

Amazing!

He is very talented. Well done to him!

Bloody impressive!

I wondered this too, as when you search the images with google lens, some very, very similar pictures come up. The OP is going to post a video soon though - of her husband doing it, (she said so about 5 hours ago, that she would post it this evening,) to dispel any doubts people have of him doing it from scratch. Has he done it yet @OnToast81 and do you have the video ready to show us?

Edited

I was wondering this.
Just checking back in as OP had said the video was on its way.

These are amazing 😍 I follow a person on TikTok who travels all over the country, painting windows at Xmas time.

That’s amazing would definitely charge go on local Facebook community groups get a post on there with some prices see what happens x

GaIadriel · 22/11/2025 21:11

Yeah, that's pretty impressive!

Mumoftwoandcats · 22/11/2025 21:10

Love it! Especially Rupert. Can he come do mine?

Neeroy · 22/11/2025 21:07

That's phenomenal! Love it!

Divebar2021 · 22/11/2025 21:02

Do you live anywhere near fancy schamncy houses? Im
in Surrey and there are houses as well as businesses who pay for their properties to be decorated at Christmas. In my mind these are footballers homes but who knows. In any cases there are businesses who proved this service and it might be worth your DH finding anything similar and offering his services through them ( in addition to working directly for properties )

I just realised, your DH may need to contact the people who hold the copyright for Rupert and Paddington if he would like to make money doing these drawings.

The Express holds the copyright as Rupert the Bear was published in the newspaper daily.

This is incredible. Fellow HR bod here and I’d run like hell out of the profession if I had a talent like that!

Janeaustenrocks · 22/11/2025 20:50

Fantastic!

Howlongisittomynextholiday · 22/11/2025 20:47

Oh I love these, your husband is very talented.

Brought back memories of my lovely Dad who passed away last year and who used to buy me the Rupert annual every year when I was a young child and read it to me each night.

Zanatdy · 22/11/2025 20:46

That’s pretty impressive

RSSN · 22/11/2025 20:29

Absolutely amazing.wow! So talented
