'Shawn Trokhan and his family created an impressive ‘ice palace’, built from more than 200 frozen blocks of ice.
The family first filled 200 aluminium tins with water, mixed with food colouring, and left them outside to freeze in Old Tappan, New Jersey. They then spent a whole day building the DIY igloo.
"We would stack two blocks together, fill the cracks with snow, and then pour water over it,’ explained Mr Trokhan, a father-of-three.'

I love it. I've been saying the only good thing about all of this freezing weather we've been having is the fun you can have with water. But, where do you get 200 tins?
