* ball shaped helium balloon
* with underside ribbons that hold the underside of the
hollow snowball which surrounds the snowball.
* perhaps some "spokes" will be needed along the external
envelope of the balloon so that the snow "sticks" [your
suggestions for alternatives are welcome]
Three of these balloons would be used one above the
other, and balancing them might be tricky, especially with
the carrot nose, but it could work. No?

[+] no other materials: just a hollow ice spheres, with snow surface (or just plain clear ice)... could work. And a carrot. |

How does one make a hollow snowball? |
|
|
You just make a normal snowball but leave out the
snow in the middle. |

Impossible, she screamed. |
|
|
Weld two igloos together, base to base. |
|
|
It would work if it were large enough. |
|
|
As anybody who's tried to scrape 1cm of ice off a windshield will tell you, ice can be pretty strong stuff. A 2-3m sphere should hold together without problem. |

finally some good feedback on a serious idea of mine... |
|
|
I'm hoping some day you'll like one of my ideas... |

5.4 kg for StaroStar. 2.5 ft in diameter. |

But the problem "arises" when the balloon goes up - it grows
four times its size. |
