These were really fun to make and of course, SUPER EASY!! There are so many different possibilities to do to make your own personalized snow globe. So give it a try!!
Materials Needed:
-Mason Jars, any shape or size (with lids to fit!)
-Glitter and more Glitter
-Figurines
- Glycerine
-Super Glue
To begin, grab the lid to your jar and glue the figurine to the bottom side of the lid. Then glue the lid with the figurine attached, to the inside of the jar screw thing. (I hope you know what I mean, I don't know what to call them. lol)
Next, take your jar and fill it almost completely with water. They say to use distilled water, but I just used tap (no need to be fancy, right?) Account for the displacement of the water when you put the figurine in. Then drop a few drops of glycerine into the jar and stir. The glycerine helps the glitter to slow down and fall more nicely. Pour as much or as little of glitter in as you want, any color.
Finally, screw the cap on and give it a little shake to shake up the glitter. You will notice some air bubbles, it is kind of hard to get rid of them but that's okay!! Set your homemade snow globe on a windowsill to get the best affect when the sun shines through.
My favorite little snowman!!
Thanks guys!!
