Jelly Jar Snow Globes
1/19/22

What fun to create a snow globe scene at home! All you need is your imagination and a quick stop at your favorite craft store for a few materials.

Materials:

• Small jelly jar (with a rubber seal)
• Hot melt glue and Elmer’s glue
• Miniature bristle brush trees
• Craft store miniature figurines
• Iridescent snowflake glitter
• One cup water
• White modeling clay

Instructions:

Remove the lid from the jelly jar

Use the inside of the jelly jar lid as the “base” for your globe scene

Gather your characters, the bristle brush trees, and hot melt glue

Bend the bottoms of the brush trees into an l-shape and use hot melt to glue them down

Apply glue to the bottom of each character, arrange, and let dry

Apply a layer of hot melt to the lid, add a layer of clay, brush with glue, cover with white glitter and let dry

Fill the jar about ¾ of the way to the top

Add one tablespoon of glitter to the water

Turn the lid upside down, dropping your scene into the jar, and fasten the lid closed

Shake and enjoy!
