How to Make Your Own Snow Globe Mason Jars

These snow globe mason jars are simple to make and need only a few supplies that can easily be found online or at your local craft store. 

Supplies

• Wide Mouth Mason Jars
• Miniature Christmas ornaments
• Clear Christmas ornaments

• White paper
• Scissors

Instructions

1. Cut the strings off the miniature ornaments.

2. Using the lid of the Mason jar trace the inner circle part on the white paper.

3. Cut the circle and hot glue it to the inner part of the lid.

4. Create a scene by hot gluing the ornaments onto the white piece of paper that is attached to the lid.

5. Add snow to your scene.

6. Open your clear plastic ornament so it’s in two pieces. Attach one half of the ornament to the outer portion of the Mason jar lid.

7. Place your dome onto the jar. There is a small part of the ornament that is meant to have the string attached to it.  Be sure that portion of the ornament is at the back of the jar.

8. Add whatever you would like inside the jar complete it.
