Hull, Massachusetts resident Michael Hanks is making the most out of this cold winter by creating a magical, frozen masterpiece that’s catching the attention of his community.
His creation: a dazzling igloo made of multi-colored ice panels.
The story behind it is as interesting as its appearance.

“This started with our son Hugh’s love of color and my wife Abby’s creativity, experimenting with food coloring to make bright, playful ice,” Hanks said.
