Sorry cant help you hope that other mumsnetter can

deepdarkwood · 19/11/2009 21:57

Can't help, but bumping for you

HellBent · 19/11/2009 21:57

Nope sorry, why not use a table cloth and try and find a white fluffy shrug instead? I'm sure that would be much easier

lindsaygii · 19/11/2009 21:58

Try posting a wanted ad on your local freecycle. It's the kind of daft thing someone will have in their attic...

treedelivery · 19/11/2009 21:58

No I haven't. Sorry! Someone will have though so keep on bumping...let your body rock....everybody bumping....da di da di da..

MerryWifeOfWindsor · 19/11/2009 21:59

Not direct help (sorry) but I did pick up a white fleece throw at tesco for £2 the other week, dunno if your local may have some?

drowninginclutter · 19/11/2009 21:59

I have a pink fluffy coat if nothing better comes along.

It's a bump if nothing else

HellBent · 19/11/2009 22:00

Boots should be easy to make BTW, if she has some cheap shoes you can just cut the fabric and use pins to hold in place pushed into the sole or double sided sticky tape. My sis used this trick at halloween one year.

treedelivery · 19/11/2009 22:01

Try Ikea too, if you can bear too.....

Hassled · 19/11/2009 22:04

2shoes · 19/11/2009 22:06

Poundland have bags of fake snow, have you an old pair of wellies you can glue and throw the snow at? or pull white socks over her boots if that's not an option cause of her SN and then glue fake snow to socks? or even just the white socks would work actually

IMoveTheStarsForNoOne · 19/11/2009 22:20

I think I have a couple of metres of white furry fabric, but it's at my parents house.

If not, i can find the website i ordered it from, was really cheap!

bump this tomorrow, I'll have a look when I'm at werk.

southeastastra · 19/11/2009 22:21

i have a life size tiger if any use

won at the christmas fair last year

2shoes · 19/11/2009 22:22

omg white socks over her boots brilliant idea
fake snow would be a bit dodgey same with glitter, gets all over her

Primark and markets and cheapo places usually do fluffy bedsocks, if you could get white ones of those they would look just the ticket

2shoes · 19/11/2009 22:25

i am going to primark on monday

If you have a fabric shop locally, have a look in the remnants bin first, then at the fleece section. (Our local even has camouflage fleece How cool is that?)

Or what about a cheapie white towel?

StealthPolarBear · 20/11/2009 09:46

have seen the fleece throws in tesco and asda - never seen them in sainsbury's
