DIY Snow Globes

Here are some snow globes I made as birthday gifts for my daughter's friend. It was fun making these and my girls enjoyed watching/helping too.

They were really simple to make.

Supplies:

- glass jars that will fit your plastic toy

- plastic toy

- glitter

- glycerin (I found mine at a local grocery store)

- hot glue

- distilled water (I just used boiled water after it has cooled down)

Optional Supplies:

- ribbon

- felt

Instructions:

- glue toy to the inside of the lid and let it dry

- fill jar almost full of water

- pour in a little bit of glycerin (it depends how big the jar is... I probably put in about 1 T in the Buzz jar)

- add some glitter

- screw on the lid (I did try one where I put hot glue on the inside of the lid before screwing it on, but the glue dried before I was done screwing on the lid... therefore leaving my jar half screwed on... and it leaked)

- put hot glue all around the rim of the lid to seal it

Optional:

- I glued on ribbon to hide the lid and the hot glue

- I cut out a circle out of felt to glue onto the bottom of the lid
