Winter is around the corner and what better way to prepare for the season than making your own snow globe. Snow globes make great decorations and are fun to make with family and friends. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to make your own snow globe.

Materials you need:
– A glass jar with a lid
– Clear glycerin
– Glitter or snow
– A figurine or object to put inside the jar
– Epoxy glue or hot glue
– Water
– A small drill or hammer and nail

Step 1: Choose your figurine
The first step in making a snow globe is selecting the perfect figurine to put inside. This can be anything from a small toy, miniature object, or even a small homemade sculpture. Whatever object you choose, ensure that it is waterproof and can fit inside your chosen jar.

Step 2: Drill a hole in the lid
To insert your figurine into the jar, you will need to make a hole in the lid of the jar. You can do this by using a small drill or by hammering a nail through the center of the lid. Keep in mind that the hole should be just big enough to fit the base of your figurine.

Step 3: Glue the figurine to the lid
Once you have drilled a hole in the lid, it is time to glue your figurine onto it. Use epoxy glue or hot glue to attach your figurine to the inside of the lid. Be sure to let the glue dry completely before moving on to the next step.

Step 4: Add water and glycerin
Fill your jar with water, leaving enough room for the glycerin to be added. Generally, you will add one-part glycerin to two parts water. The glycerin will ensure that the glitter or snow will fall slowly and create a snow-like effect.

Step 5: Add glitter or snow
Now it is time to add the magical snow-like effect to your snow globe. Choose your favorite colored glitter or white snowflakes and add them into the jar with the water and glycerin mixture.

Step 6: Screw the lid onto the jar
Screw the lid onto the jar tightly, ensuring that there are no leaks. You might want to add a layer of glue around the lid to prevent water from escaping.

Step 7: Shake and enjoy
Finally, shake the jar and watch as the glitter or snow slowly falls from the top of the jar, creating a beautiful winter wonderland effect. Enjoy!

In conclusion, making your own snow globe is a fun and easy DIY project that you can do all year round. Use these simple steps and create unique snow globes that match your décor or holiday theme. These one of a kind snow globes make perfect gifts or keep them for yourself to add to your collection.
