  • Patent number: 7000887
    Abstract: A snow mold is disclosed for making a snowman and similar snow structures. A flexible sheet of material has tabs formed at one end, and slots cut into the sheet at spaced intervals along the length of the sheet in horizontal alignment with the tabs. The slots are also in vertical alignment with one another at these spaced intervals, each slot containing area defining a particular circle diameter. Pushing the tabs into the slots provides different circular forms which can be filled with snow. First one circle of snow is formed, the mold can be reconfigured to a smaller diameter and placed on the formed circle of snow, filled with snow, and so on. A replica of a snowman is rapidly created. The inexpensive snow mold is then simply rolled up and stored for future use.
