We made snow gnomes! It was a lot easier than I would have imagined.
There is a #Canadian community snow sculptor named Matt Morris who has a website with amazing photos of his sculptures (I particularly like "two feet of snow"), as well as instructions on how to prepare the snow and how to make a snow gnome yourself. Check it out: https://snowbankproductions.weebly.com/
