How to make a homemade snow globe

An empty jalapeno jar magically transforms into a homemade snow globe with glitter! It’s an easy little craft that was done in a few minutes (here and there) and got a response of “wow!” from our baby (14 months old today)!

This nifty little glitter globe was an old jalapeno jar that I spray painted the top in silver. I let the top dry for two hours and then I glued two little toys to the top with E6000 (love that stuff!). I then dumped some glitter into the jar and added water (though I think I should have added more). I put some glue on the edge of the jar and then securely tightened the lid. Dry overnight and voila – a glitterglobe suprise in the morning.
