Making Art Out Of Arctic Weather

On her Facebook wall, Kerri Thoreson posts: "When life hands you lemons, make lemonade. When winter hands you arctic temperatures, make colored ice balls! On a whim I made these by filling balloons with water and food coloring and set them out on the patio for 24 hours. The balloons peel right off and each ice ball has wonderful ice designs inside. I'll place them in my planters in the front yard for a spot of color in this winter landscape."

Question: Have any of you done something like this? Pretty cool ...
