DIY Snow Globe

I have seen the DIY Snow Globe going around a lot on Pinterest. I had been wanting to make them for awhile and never did. Well, I finally got the time to make them. I decided to do it a little bit differently. This is super simple and a little bit messy, but a lot of fun!

DIY Snow Globe

Supplies Needed:

Mason Jars

Two Lego’s

Super Glue

Mini Christmas Trees

Glitter/Tinsel

Snow

Texture Snow Paint


Directions:

First super glue your mini tree to one Lego. Then glue the other Lego to the inside lid of your mason jar.

(That way you can always switch out what you have inside your jar. This also makes the tree higher and easier to see.)

While this is drying fill your mason jar with snow and glitter. I used blue, silver and gold glitter specks.

Once the super glue is dry, screw the lid on the mason jar.

Take your Texture Snow Paint and paint the lid and a little onto the jar.

Done! Enjoy your new snow globes.

I really love the look that the texture snow paint gives the DIY snow globe. It makes it look like it is always snowing in the globe. No need to shake anything up.

    This is creative! I'm still bugged to see the lid so visible there in the bottom of the globe. Maybe I could make some more decoration to cover it entirely. Great share!
    • Sarah Halstead says

      December 11, 2014 at 12:52 pm

      Ha ha. Well it did say on the can you could paint something white and then use the snow paint. Or you could use more layers. I just didn't have enough time.

6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adans 6 weeks ago I cut off the top of my Monstera Adansonii because it was very tall but not bushy. It was nerve wracking at first. I had 5 total cuttings that I put into water. 4 of the pieces had roots longer than 2 inches with some secondary roots. The last piece is still in water, it has some roots but not enough, so giving it a bit more time. Where I cut it is also making a new stem and I noticed further down it was trying to branch out in other places. Hopefully it takes off this Summer and becomes fuller looking.
Sweet pea. Sweet pea.

It was soooo cold out there tonight even with the sun. The wind was whipping. It may have been in the 40s but the wind chill was in the low 30s. I think my face is wind burned. Annie did a great job playing tonight and was trying so hard to make a goal. The other team was short on players, so one of her teammates was goalie and did an awesome job stopping the ball. Annie tried a new strategy of holding the ball in between her feet until the other team gives up. 🤣 There is one clip of Prestyn (# 13). His games are harder to take video of cause his field is so big.

Two and a half months after her first tooth she fi Two and a half months after her first tooth she finally lost her second tooth. It’s been hanging on barely. Today while eating lunch I told her it was close to coming out and we would need to pull it before bed. While eating chicken teriyaki she thought she swallowed it and spit out the chicken in her mouth. I dug through it and it wasn’t there. She started freaking out. Then looked on the chair and it was sitting right there. 🤣 A similar thing happened with Prestyn on one of his bottom teeth. My kids never want to pull them out until they fall out on their own. Ha.

So it was growing soooooo slow. I finally repotted it a couple weeks ago, moved it closer to a window, and started using plant food from @happyhappyhouseplant. Not sure what made the most difference but the leaf opened and now a new one is already starting. Hoping it won’t take as long this time.
