DIY Snow Globes

Homemade snow globes made with mason jars.

Readymade has a fast and so-easy-a-kid-could-do-it tutorial showing us how to make our own custom snow globes. Start with a recycled glass jar–they suggest using a Grey Poupon empty–then use epoxy or glue that won’t dissolve in water to attach figures to the underside of its lid. Fill the jar with water and a couple of pinches of glitter. When the glue has fully dried, replace the lid and make it leak-proof by applying a bead of glue or epoxy around the seal. And voila, snow DIY snow globe!
