Snow globe how-to's

What you will need:
A small or medium sized glass baby food jar (cleaned and the lid could be painted)
Florist clay
A small item to be highlighted in your snowglobe (we used minature trees)
Distilled Water
Glycerin
Glitter

Glue Gun

1. Place a small piece of florist clay onto the inside of the lid. Press down but be sure not to cover the entire lid top, or the clay pushed to the sides may make it hard to close.
2. Press your decoration into the florist clay. Set aside.
3. Fill baby food jar almost to full with distilled water, a drop or two of glycerin and 1/4 tsp of white glitter or glitter snow.
4. Carefully attach the lid onto the jar and tighten.
5. Turn over and make sure that the water level is right. If it is where you would like move onto the next step.
6. Hot glue the around the rim of the lid - this will create a nice seal.
7. Enjoy your snowglobe.
